MORE ABOUT ANDREA
My interest in exercise began when I started to play basketball at a young age. In high school I was apart of a distinguished medical magnet program which allowed me to have an outlet of opportunities and interests in the healthcare field. Being an athlete at heart I was interested in the science behind sports. I received my Associates of Science in Kinesiology in El Paso, TX followed by a Bachelors degree in Exercise and Sport Science with a concentration of Pre-Rehabilitation Sciences at Texas State University.
During my undergraduate studies I found a passion for physical therapy, being a technician I taught a variety of clientele the proper body mechanics and functional exercises in order to improve their activities of daily living while doing so in a safe manner. Being in this industry has helped me realize the importance of health and fitness that everyone has the opportunity to pursue.
