I cannot speak highly enough of FHU’s exercise science department. Every member of the faculty worked tirelessly to ensure that my peers and I were appropriately prepared to excel in any career or further educational endeavors that we pursued. I remember my time at FHU very fondly. Many mentors helped equip me with the tools to build strong educational and spiritual foundations that I am building my life upon today.

At FHU the amount of dedication and investment into each student is unmatched. I was very well prepared for the challenges of physical therapy school. I’m indebted to the faculty in the biology department for their expertise and love of each student and for helping me develop into a person ready to take on graduate school.

At FHU, I was always placed in situations that pushed me outside my comfort zone. That skill, that ability to be comfortable in the unknown and to excel in any situation, is what led me to my career success today. It helped me build, and now run, a company that has some of the biggest clients in the world, including Lego, Target, HGTV and Johnson & Johnson.
