I am pursing a major in Exercise Science. Hoping to pursue a career as a Physical Therapist after I graduate.

I choose this major due to always being in sports and constantly being injured because of my lack of experience and preventative maintenance. I was always in and out of my physical therapy practice and while I hated being injured, I loved the way these doctors and practitioners carried themselves and was in awe at the knowledge they used to help others including myself regain the strength needed to continue on in whatever they or myself needed to accomplish. I originally wanted to become and veterinarian or an oceanographer, but the idea of helping others to recover on injury, whether it be regaining mobility in a joint, recovery from surgery, or just simple back pain. Is just a wonderful experience I want to be able to partake in.

Experience:

The only experience I have with my major, is being a subject to physical therapy as well as working a short summer internship with my local physical therapy practice, “Biomechanical Physical Therapy.”
