Biography

I completed both my BSEd and MSEd from Baylor University. I worked as a Student Athletic Trainer with the Football, Soccer, Basketball, and Track & Field teams during my undergraduate studies, and completed my state exams to become A Licensed Athletic Trainer. During my graduate studies, I worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Baylor University teaching Health for non-majors and Anatomy & Physiology. I additionally worked in the kinesiology research labs and worked as a LAT covering local TAPPs track & field meets. After graduation, I continued taking graduate courses at Texas Woman's University and taught laboratories in biology for Science for non majors, intro biology, anatomy & physiology, mammalian physiology, and medical physiology. I additionally worked for a year as the zoology laboratory assistant before taking on the visiting assistant clinical professor position.
