MAJOR
Exercise Science: Personal Trainer
I chose to Exercise Science as my major because I have a passion for sports, I love to exercise, and all the wonderful career options I can pursue. The specific career I am leaning towards is a personal trainer. I want to be a personal trainer for a college soccer team or even a trainer at my local gym because I enjoy helping people, and I like seeing people grow as they go from point A to point B. This major and career fits my personality. I've already trained some individuals to get them ready for their soccer season, and working more with them, makes me love personal training even more. When I was younger, I wanted to be an engineer or an architect, but after taking classes in that field in high school, I knew it wasn't for me. I didn't get to interact with others, I wasn't able to do what I love and workout, or be around sports.
MINOR
Coaching
I chose my minor of coaching because of my strong passion for sports. I have been playing soccer since I was four years old. I have had many coaches throughout my years, all with their own unique qualities to the simple game of soccer. I have always wanted to coach ever since my dad started doing it. I see myself as a leader, and with a leader, you need to be energetic, get people motivated, and ultimately, lead a team. As a coach, you do the same things. Over the years, I have gained experience with coaching. I have been an assistant coach for a summer soccer team and a club soccer team during the spring. I have enjoyed every moment of it. Practicing not only helps me become a better coach, it also helps me with my soccer skills when I am on the field. With this minor, it goes right along with personal training. A personal trainer is like a coach, so they go hand in hand.
