“It’s really exciting to be so close to graduating. Graduation for me is simply a culmination of hard work, growth and answered prayers. It’s honestly something that was hard to imagine three years ago when I first began, so it’s a bit surreal to finally be at the end.
I’m really thankful to be able to graduate in December because it gives me some time off before graduate school. I can immerse myself in the field of athletic training before I begin my master’s program. I’m most excited for no homework, at least for a little while anyway. I’m also really excited to travel and spend more time with friends and family. After graduation I will head to athletic training school. I’m not sure where just yet, but I’m really excited to be one step closer to my dream job.”
