Kori finally MASTERS something




I have been working on my Master's degree from Southern Utah University for the past 4 1/2 years.  It certainly has not been easy working, being the mother of three very active children, serving in church positions, and trying to go back to school.  Many times my only study hours available were between 10 pm to 2 am.  However, I did it... one or two classes at a time.  I was able to attend my graduation ceremony and walk with my classmates.  My official master's degree is in Sports Conditioning and Performance within the Human Movement department.  I currently work as an exercise physiologist at the hospital.  Because this degree assists with my line of work, the hospital paid for 70% of my financial costs.  It was a huge blessing and made it possible for me to even do this.
I am also very lucky to have had the support of my husband, children, and parents along the way.  I really could not have done it without them.  Thanks everyone!
