Lori Portzer, Ph.D, ACSM-EP Associate Professor and Program Lead for Exercise Science
With a “lift as you climb” philosophy, I strive to bring students to a level of professionalism and excitement that mirrors my own dedication to my profession. Decreasing sedentary time and increasing physical activity within a natural environment and creatively stimulating change are my primary research areas, as well as engaging with obese and/or low SES populations.
