Kristina Sormaz
Born and raised in San Antonio, TX Kristina attended Tom C. Clark High School where she was a very proactive athlete. Kristina grew up playing a variety of all kinds of sports ranging from volleyball, basketball, swimming as well as track and she developed a deep passion for the sports she played until she unfortunately had an injury that required her to put her favorite sports behind her. While an athlete at Clark Kristina was apart of her schools Sports Medicine Society Club which allowed her to explore the world of sports injuries & athletic rehabilitation with student athletes who were just like her. During this process she developed a passion for Athletic/Sports Medicine & Physical Rehabilitation.
In 2018 Kristina graduated from the University of Texas at San Antonio with a Bachelor’s Degree in Kinesiology with a concentration in Athletic Medicine. While in college Kristina was apart of UTSA’s Student Athletic Training Program which allowed her to be a full time student but also work as an intern with all of the UTSA student athletes year round during the on and off seasons. Kristina worked with almost every athletic team at UTSA providing treatment for athletes under the supervision of the licensed Athletic Trainers who worked at the university.

Kristina thrives in this type of environment. Since she can’t play the sports she used to anymore, she loves being able to use her personal experiences that she’s walked through and lived through to give back to those who need help in their recovery process. She has a passion for helping those in need as well as showing people tools and exercises individuals can use to improve and support themselves in their everyday lives.
In her spare time she loves spending time with her family & friends, reading, going to the beach or doing anything out doors.
