Taking part in these professional development opportunities through my internship at Mind to Muscle, CPR/AED certification, and my role as a group leader at Pinewoods Chapel Summer Camp has helped me develop skills in child safety, coach- athlete relationships, and working with children. These skills are important to me because, as a future high school teacher, I  will be managing classes of 20 or more students and need to build positive relationships while teaching them the how to move safely and effectively to prevent injuries.
