Summary
I have a strong interest in many different fields of sports medicine. The main careers that interest me are PM&R, Orthopedics, and Physical Therapy. I would love to work in your lab in order to gain lab skills in biomechanics and to get ready for a graduate degree in exercise science/kinesiology. I am interested in getting this graduate degree because I am interested in the subject and I am hoping to get research experience before pursuing medical school.

National track record holder for my country (Jordan)
I run for my country and this past spring I broke the indoor 3000m record for Jordan. Also, I will be competing against the world's best this January in the World XC Championships held in Tallahassee Florida. I take running very seriously and it has shaped my view on sports and sports medicine which has led me to develop an interest in many things sports medicine related.
