Shanyn Olpin: I am an Adjunct Professor in the Health Promotion and Human Performance Department at Weber State University. I received my Bachelors of Science degree from Brigham Young University and my Masters in Community Medicine from West Virginia University School of Medicine. I have been a community health project coordinator, grant writer, and text book reviewer. I have also been an editor for PE Central, a website for teachers. My favorite activity is teaching. (I learn so much from my students!) Some of the classes that I have taught include; Fitness for Life, Community Health, Educational Testing and Evaluation, Personal Health, Adolescent Health, Elementary Health Education, and Healthy Lifestyles. I am happily married to my best friend Mike who is also a Health Professor and Stress Management Guru at Weber State. We have four great kids and we love being back in Utah. I have lived in Oregon, Colorado, Idaho, Illinois, West Virginia and Utah. I love to read, write, exercise, go to all of my kid’s events, create things, and work on any of a dozen projects that I always seem to have going.
