Rob Patterson

After graduating high school I knew I wanted to study nutrition or exercise science in school and I soon moved to Utah to attend Southern Utah University. While at SUU I began exploring both paths and quickly earned my Associate Degree. After my two years there I transferred to Utah State University, where I am now working on finishing my Bachelor Degree in exercise science to graduate in the spring of 2014. I am also a student member of the American College of Sports Medicine.
