Summary

My career goal is to start a career within the field of physical education starting at the K-12 level. Throughout my journey I aspire to further students' physical literacy along with equipping them with the knowledge to pursue their own desires in the realm of physical activity for their entire life. I aspire to mentor students of all ages and touch them in ways others can't through understanding and passion for health and physical education.
