Justine Kuiper

After playing two seasons with the Life University Women’s Soccer Team (2021–2023), Justine Kuiper began her graduate studies in Sport Health Science at Life University in 2024, where she also currently serves as a Graduate Assistant in Sports Information. In addition to her graduate work, Kuiper is currently completing her undergraduate degree in Biology at the same time.

Originally from the Netherlands, Kuiper holds a Nursing degree from Hanze University of Applied Sciences in Groningen and has gained hands-on experience in both hospital and home-care settings. She worked as a nurse with Buurtzorg and completed several nursing internships across the Netherlands and Germany, including at Evangelisches Krankenhaus in Oldenburg.

In addition to her clinical experience, Kuiper has been active in sport and community engagement. She volunteered with her dutch soccer team in the media and worked as a coach for the Southern Soccer Academy in Georgia. Her experiences reflect her commitment to the intersection of sport, health, and communication.

Kuiper’s multicultural background, having lived in the Netherlands, Germany, and the United States, has shaped her into an independent, reliable, and motivated professional. Fluent in Dutch and English, with basic German proficiency, she brings strong teamwork, time management, and problem-solving skills to every role she takes on.

A current resident of Marietta, Georgia, Kuiper is dedicated to combining her nursing background with sport science to pursue a career that supports athlete health and performance.
