Noah recently graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology, with a specialization in Exercise Science from the University of the Fraser Valley. During his studies, he had the opportunity to collaborate with a team of students to design and film a series of videos aimed at helping self-regulate children with neurodevelopmental challenges.
Noah played football for 10 years and remembers and understands the pain, frustration, and psychological consequences that can accompany an injury. He knows that if there is a lack of support system for an individual after an injury it can generate a more negative environment that the individual must overcome in their fitness and rehabilitation process. It took years of injuries for him to realize that he could not place his identity in the alignment that he was facing. With time, he has learned to focus on a holistic approach to health and wellness which has allowed him to separate his identity from injuries. He wants to be the change in the lives of people who are suffering from similar issues regarding injuries or inactivity.
During the summer and fall months, he enjoys spending many hours exploring local rivers, and fishing. He also makes sure to stay physically active by lifting weights, playing ball hockey, or walking through his neighbourhood.
