Exercise Science
In the exercise science department, I had the opportunity to be a member of a research team that studies the effects of concussion on the human body. I was able to study the neurological health data from approximately 1,000 participants! I had many hands-on experiences and felt comfortable asking for guidance from my professors at any time. The exercise science major paved the road to my dream of being accepted into a Doctor of Physical Therapy program by providing very comprehensive and competitive courses and experiences.

Mathematics
I started as a math major, but added physics as a second major at the end of my first year. I was able to manage both majors since the lower division requirements for each major were very similar. I've tried to take at least one upper division math class and one upper division physics class each semester since my sophomore year. Having a deeper understanding of math helped me a lot in upper division physics classes.

Theatre Arts
We don't just focus on warm-ups and how to speak on stage. We also study the history of theatre, and we are encouraged to broaden our intellect by taking classes outside of theatre. This helps us become more knowledgeable when we are faced with challenging roles and situations.
