Hey my name is Matthew Henriques, I’m a 4th year kinesiology major aspiring to become a PT and if all goes well in the future I’ll be able to fix that shoulder that has been bugging you for a while and your car at the same time. While I’m studying in the field of medicine now, my upbringing was working out on family ranches and fixing cars and tractors. Pretty soon I’ll be applying to PT school and plan on making a career in that. Having had a range of jobs from all ends of the spectrum, I feel I am very well rounded, work well with others, can read and communicate well with others which is a big part of the job. I embrace the challenges at hand and don’t run away from them. What separates me from the rest is my background and all the jobs I have had. I’m am very well rounded and never have had a problem connecting with people. In the next 5 to 6 years I wish to have been in my career as a PT and start a family living in a house with some land so I can also have a little ranch to run on the side to keep me connected with my upbringing.
