I\u2019m fortunate to be part of an incredible team in Student Health, and especially in Athletic Training, where we are dedicated to providing outstanding care to BU students. My journey in athletic training has taken me across the country, shaping my passion for education, mentorship, and patient care. My career has spanned roles in both clinical and academic settings, including serving as an Associate Professor and Director of Clinical Education at A.T. Still University, as well as Faculty Director of Clinical Education and Clinical Assistant Professor at Boston University\u2019s College of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. Before transitioning fully into academia, I worked as an athletic trainer at Seton Hall University, served as Head Athletic Trainer at both Stevens Institute of Technology and Lasell College, and mentored future ATs as a preceptor at Seton Hall, Lasell, and BU. These experiences have reinforced my commitment to advancing the profession and ensuring high-quality healthcare for student-athletes and active populations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Personal Hobbies<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Running, playing guitar, watching my 3 girls in gymnastics, lacrosse, field hockey, and volleyball.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Education &amp; Training<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>PhD, Seton Hall University<\/p>\n<p>MS, East Stroudsburg University<\/p>\n<p>BS, SUNY Cortland<\/p>\n<p>LAT<\/p>\n<p>ATC<\/p>\n<p><strong>Special Interests<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Biomechanics, accreditation of advanced practice training in athletic training (residency, fellowship), clinical education, collaborative practice<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Awards<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Frank George Award (2019): Awarded by the Boston University Athletic Training program for significant contributions to the athletic training profession<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Noteworthy publications &amp; presentations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>Manspeaker SA, Young JP, Wilkins NA, et al.
