District Representative:
Christopher Dean, ATC
My name is Christopher Dean, and I have been a Certified Athletic Trainer since 1996. I first began my journey into Athletic Training as a freshman at Lathrop High School. Lathrop had a small but very dedicated Student Athletic Trainer program that provided the experience and foundation to help me transition into a collegiate Student Athletic Trainer Program at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. I was one of the final students in UAF internship program to complete the program and obtain certification as a Certified Athletic Trainer. Following graduation, I began working as a Physician Extender with our Team Physician. While serving in this role, I also worked as a volunteer Athletic Trainer at the University of Alaska, 3 area High Schools, with the Junior A hockey team, the summer league baseball team and numerous community cultural and athletic events. In 2002, I assumed the role of Head Athletic Trainer at Lathrop High School, coming full circle with where I had begun my journey many years prior. I serve as the Secondary Schools Athletic Trainer Committee representative for the State of Alaska as well as the Northwest Athletic Trainers Association (District 10) representative to the National Secondary Schools Athletic Trainer Committee.
