Graduate Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach
Smith College
My name is Kate Winstanley and I am a Graduate Assistant Strength and Conditioning Coach at Smith College in Northampton, MA. I am a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the NSCA. I will graduate in May of 2025 with an MS in Exercise and Sport Studies. I obtained my BS in Kinesiology with a concentration in exercise science from the University of Alabama in Huntsville in May 2023 where I was also a student-athlete playing Division II womens lacrosse. I builde safe spaces for athletes to grow and become the strongest versions of themselves both as athletes and as human beings. I strongly believe that strength comes from confidence and belief in one's own abilities. My academic passions include increasing the amount of research conducted and conversations had about female athlete health and wellness.
