KORE OFFICERS
[2026-2027]
Morgan Stevenson
President
Hi, my name is Morgan and I will be your president! I am a fourth year majoring in kinesiology (pre-PT), as well as minoring in interdisciplinary studies through the Weber Honors College. I have always thought learning about how our bodies move and recover was super interesting, which led me to my career path, physical therapy. Some fun facts about me are that I am from San Diego, I love going to the beach, and I grew up watching and playing all kinds of sports! This year I hope that we bring in lots of new members to our KORE family. I am excited for our new and returning members to attend the fun and informative events we have planned. I hope to see you all there!
