Majoring in Exercise Science

Little background about me and how I got into studying Exercise Science. Summer going into my freshman year of high school, I tried out for the football team as I have passion for the game and really wanted to play. So I went to the callout for football and tried out for the team. Once I made the team, I met our high school athletic trainer at the time, Hannah. Everyday before & after practice I would come into the athletic training room and watched her do her job. Hannah really inspired me. I never knew what I wanted to do after high school or even what I wanted to major in. I had an assignment for my Career Prep class. I job shadowed her for the whole afternoon after school was let out. After that experience, I knew the career path I wanted and that was to be an athletic trainer for the NFL.
