I graduated from Cal State Northridge with my Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology. I have hands on experience helping people with cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injuries, and strokes with land and aquatic therapy. I got along great with everyone and enjoyed putting smiles on everyone's faces.
