Born and raised in Des Moines, Iowa, Dr. Weuve grew up playing sports. In college, she took that love of sports and decided to pursue a career in athletic training. She earned her bachelor’s degree in athletic training from the Buena Vista University in Storm Lake, Iowa, in 1995; her master’s degree in health science from Springfield College, in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1998; and her doctorate in athletic training from Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions, in Provo, Utah, in 2012.
Dr. Weuve always knew she wanted to teach, so after working as an athletic trainer in Georgia and Alabama, Dr. Weuve moved to Louisiana and started teaching athletic training at Nicholls State University in Thibodaux, Louisiana, where she fell in love with Cajun food and matured as an educator. After 9 years in Louisiana, Dr. Weuve moved on to the beautiful mountains of Tennessee and gained experience as the Chair of the Department of Athletic Training and Director of the Bachelors of Science in Athletic Training at Lincoln Memorial University.
In August 2016, Dr. Weuve came to UIS to create the Master of Athletic Training Program, which began accepting students in the Summer of 2019. In addition to serving as the Director of the Master of Athletic Training Program, she also serves as Director of the School of Health Sciences, and is very involved across the UIS campus in governance, innovation, and striving for the betterment of UIS. Her specialty and research interests include athletic injury diagnosis, general medical evaluation, healthy workplace environments, curriculum development and pedagogy.
