Indie Major: Garrett Sasseville

Individualized Major: Integrative Exercise Physiology and Nutrition
Graduation Date: May 2024

Why Individualized? I chose an individualized major because I saw an opportunity to create a plan of study that integrated several aspects of two different majors and that was tailored to opportunities I see within my future.
Most memorable course or project from your major? The most memorable course I’ve taken is biomechanics, as this is the class that solidified my desire to study exercise science and one day go to physical therapy school.
An individual who inspired you? An individual who has inspired me was the professor I had for biomechanics, Dr. Lindsey DiStefano. She always taught and spoke with a sense of enthusiasm and intelligence that got me progressively more excited to learn more and one day put the knowledge into practice as she has.
Future plans? I plan to attend physical therapy school, and sometime in my future I would love to be involved in personal training and lifestyle coaching aimed towards helping individuals achieve their goals and live a healthier life in a world that has made it increasingly difficult.
