Johan Favelin - Kinesiology - Spring 2024 Senior Spotlight

May 01, 2024

Johan Favelin
Major: Kinesiology with a minor in Psychology
Campus Activities: Men’s Tennis Team

Impact of OLLU: OLLU gave me opportunities that I never thought I would have. When I look back three years ago, I didn’t know what I was going to do after college, and OLLU helped me to figure out what I like in life and what is really important for me.

As an international student, the best part of studying in the United States was to meet so many people from all around the world. My favorite U.S. cultural tradition is probably Thanksgiving because it was completely new for me since we don’t celebrate it in France. It was very interesting to see how people here celebrate it with friends and family.

An important life lesson learned: The biggest life lesson I’ve learned is that hard work always pays off

Plans for the future: I hope to become a tennis and conditioning coach with my degree in Kinesiology from OLLU. I have been accepted for an Optional Practical Training opportunity starting in June in Illinois.
