Throughout my life I have been an active, outgoing person.

Being outdoors and

participating in various different sports and activities has had a significant effect on my daily
life, an overwhelmingly positive one. My only hope is to imbue that same importance of
physical activity in my students. I am passionate that I can create a safe and inclusive
environment that fosters multidimensional growth in today’s youth through an exciting
curriculum. My platform as an educator offers a unique opportunity to instill positive
principles with high intrinsic value in students by way of physical education. Through my
coursework students can hone essential skills that will assist them in growing into well
rounded adults. Sport, Leisure, Play, and Recreation is the framework but the real takeaway
is the development of these skills, e.g. team building, risk management, social skills, critical
thinking, and self worth.
