Graduated through the internship route
Carolyn came back for a year in Alaska since my mom was retiring and to figure out my next move.
What is a unique aspect of Athletic Training in your state?
I love the people, they are generous and super welcoming.
Living in Sitka I feel like I live in an amazing bubble.
What is a big challenge for Athletic Trainers in Alaska?
Being involved is difficult
Legislation is always a challenge
If you had to pick another state to live and work in which one would it be and why?
Probably somewhere like Arizona.
You’re recruiting ATs to work in Alaska…what is your sales pitch?
Pay is competitive
Anchorage is like most big cities
You get to cover all sports
It is a close-knit group of ATs
Scenery is unmatched
