Having a background in science and varsity athletic while learning proper movement and form (and nutrition!) has allowed me to exceed at what I am passionate about- advising young athletes on injury prevention, proper technique, and proper nutritional habits without demonizing food groups or encouraging an unhealthy relationship with foods. I am able to do this through my extensive knowledge of scientific literature and ability to translate it to the real world. My passion for sports stems from not only my own athletic upbringing, but the observance of the perpetuation of knowledge in athletics. I believe that from a young age, young girls need to develop a strong overall foundation for movement in ANY area of sport, in order to prevent injury and increase performance as they age and hit puberty. Nutritional knowledge will be valuable to take on throughout their lives. I truly believe that in order to increase the reputation of performance in sport, we need to start grooming athletes YOUNG to be not only good hockey players, but good athletes in general. Learning how to eat and move for optimal performance and fun without sickness or injury is the objective when it comes to mentoring young athletes.
