	Allyson Calhoun, ATC, LAT Allyson’s journey to becoming an athletic trainer is like many of her colleagues. After getting injured as a college soccer player, she was introduced to the athletic training room, and thought what a cool setting it would be to work in. Her experience over the years has been in many of the traditional settings, from college and clinics, to outreach and administrative oversight in the high school setting. Outreach ATs are such a valuable part of the medical community and connect athletes to physicians to families which is an integral part of a student-athlete's well-being. “I really enjoy being part of an athlete's journey on understanding their health and well-being, as a student athlete.”
