Biography

I am extremely grateful for the time I spent in the Kinesiology and Health Education Department at UT Austin. The education, guidance and support I received from world-class faculty & staff members have influenced my professional and personal life in a very positive way. It was in KHE that my passion for teaching, research and coaching was born, and where I learned lessons and skills that have opened many doors for me at the international level. I am very proud to be a “KHE Longhorn.”
