Who do you choose? We can’t wait to hear from you! My name is Katie Holliday, I am a certified Athletic Trainer licensed in the state of Massachusetts. I am in my 5th year as a certified professional, I previously worked with volleyball, men’s ice hockey and softball for a d3 college. I am currently the Head AT for an independent private high school in the Boston area, The Cambridge School of Weston. I work with 315 students (90 boarding), 17 athletic teams, performing arts and dance, as well as independent athletes who participate in sports outside of our school community like rock climbing or equestrian sports. 1. All time favorite Gatorade flavor - Light Blue (because I refuse to call them by their government names) 2. If I could work with any athlete for 1 season it would be Ilona Maher - American Rugby. She seems to radiate positivity, is an epic talent on the pitch and seems like a great athlete to work with!
