This will enhance Kretschy’s clinical career as her clients and future clients will benefit from her projected research.  The department of kinesiology has also invited Kretschy to join UIC as a Teaching Assistant.  She is co-instructing alongside Dr. John Coumbe-Lilley, the class Instructional Techniques in Fitness.  Kretschy is thrilled to have this opportunity to educate future fitness professionals by bridging the gap between the lessons of the classroom and those in the clinical setting.
