I am excited to be affiliated with the University of Toronto's Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education professional placement course. I welcome Brenda, my student intern, who will be under my mentorship for the next several months. She will get to observe, participate, and learn the many aspects of working as a Kinesiologist. Brenda has already proven to be a bright and enthusiastic young lady who keeps me on my toes! I am so happy to have her on board and for her to meet my clients.

Brenda Murillo is a fourth year Kinesiology student-athlete at the University of Toronto. She is a member of the varsity women’s soccer team. Being a high performance athlete, she’s had lots of training both on field and in the weight room. She expanded her knowledge in the gym by working as a strength and conditioning coach intern at the Canadian Sport Institute Ontario. Passionate for sport, health and fitness, she is excited to work with myself to broaden her experience and add Pilates to her fitness repertoire. Aside from school and soccer, Brenda has always loved to give back to her community and help others. As a result of this, she was awarded the U of T Women’s Soccer Award of Merit in her first two years as well as the OUA East Community Service Award this past year. Looking forward, Brenda is interested in a career that will allow her to help others enhance their everyday lives.

Welcome, Brenda Murillo!
