Biography

My education and experience in the field of Kinesiology are broad. Prior to my arrival at APU, I owned two small Kinesiology-related businesses that allowed me to apply my education and gain valuable experience in the field. I started teaching at APU in the Fall of 2015 and immediately felt God's plan working in my life. Since that time, I have taught various courses across the department in multiple specialties. My passion in this field is rooted in movement analysis and understanding how movement contributes to injuries.
