I am professional educator and allied healthcare provider. I teach and work in the field of sports medicine at the high school level. I have a B.S in Athletic Training from Texas Lutheran University and a M.S. in Athletic Administration from Ohio University. Additionally, I am pursuing M.Ed. in Guidance & Development (School Counseling & Professional Counseling for LPC). I have been teaching for 7 years, focusing on the sports medicine elective class and assisting in the Health Science classes. I have knowledge of most major sciences, with interest in Anatomy & physiology, Biology, nutrition, pharmacology, and health & medicine. Furthermore, I am familiar with research writing, resume writing, as well as counseling and psychology.
As a teacher my goal is to empower my students to be able to retain and comprehend the material they are learning. I assist them by recommending study tips, giving short quizzes, and providing constructive feedback to help them improve their performance and grades. I believe it must be a team effort on the part of the student and the teacher to ensure that all students find success. Furthermore, I am a fan of using small study groups to facilitate learning and critical thinking skills.
I am a licensed athletic trainer (LAT) for the state of Texas and a certified educator for the state of Texas. I practice in the area of sports medicine focusing on clinical diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries. Additionally I have experience regarding clinical counseling skills.
Working in my field I have had the privilege to train and treat athletes and fitness individuals from all aspects of life. This includes college athletes, professional athletes, high school athletes, and Dance/performance individuals in my career.
I am also currently pursuing additional graduate coursework in the field of counseling with a duel specialization in professional school counseling & Licensed Professional Counselor (MEd). One area interest for me is career and guidance counseling as well as post injury & illness counseling for sports and active individuals. I am very familiar with the college admission process and will often assist my students in completing/editing their essays for admission.
If you are interested in the field of healthcare or the related science work please reach out to me if you need any assistance. My goal is to help you obtain the tools you need to achieve your goals. If you have any questions or concerns please reach out to me.
