I started at WSHS in 2004. I graduated from the University of Michigan in 1998 with a B.S. in Kinesiology.

I have been an athlete all of my life and I knew I wanted to work in the medical field. The athletic trainer at my high school really sparked my interest in the field.

It’s great to work with so many different people everyday. Any student that is interested in athletic training needs to have strong work ethics. We put in many hours.

In my free time, I like to do water activities. I surf, water ski, and scuba dive. I am a national water ski jump competitor, but after having my baby in September 2005 my activities have taken a 180 degree turn. Now, I enjoy rollerblading with her in the stroller and hanging out in the pool. When she gets a little older, we hope she will love the water as much as her Daddy and I do.
