Kevin Henry
Senior Professional Lecturer of Athletic Training
Bio
My interest in athletic training and sports medicine began at a young age, and I was a member of only the second class of students to ever graduate with a degree in Athletic Training from Marist College! I was fortunate to be mentored by longtime Marist Head Athletic Trainer Glenn Marinelli, who taught me many valuable lessons – including how to balance work and family. My graduate studies at Old Dominion University focused on training students to become athletic training educators, which was a goal of mine from the start. While serving as an adjunct lecturer, I continued to gain clinical experience in both the collegiate and secondary school settings before I was afforded the opportunity to join the faculty ranks at Marist. I am currently in my seventh year of teaching full-time in the Athletic Training Program at Marist and teach a range of courses throughout the curriculum from Introduction to Athletic Training to Therapeutic Exercise. My hobbies outside of teaching include traveling to new places and spending time with my family.
