I have been around volleyball for most of my life having played growing up and now on sidelines as a coach.
I am currently the Milwaukee Sting 13 Gold Head Coach and have been so for the last 4 years. Prior to Sting I had coached at RVA as the 14 Navy Head Coach. Along with coaching I helped out with a wide array of camps and clinics throughout my time with the club.
Outside of club, I have coached High School for 7 years. Starting as a Girls Varsity Assistant at Waukesha West (2years), followed by 5 years as the Pewaukee Girls Varsity Coach.
I have a strong passion for the sport of volleyball and look forward to the possible opportunity to help continue the growth of the sport in our region!!
I feel that I would be a valuable addition to the Badger Region Board of Directors due to my strong leadership skills, deep passion for volleyball, and extensive experience in community engagement. With a clear understanding of the region’s specific needs and challenges, I feel well-equipped to advocate for meaningful improvements and initiatives that benefit both athletes, coaches and the region.
Over the years, I feel that I have gained a lot of good knowledge and understanding of what the region needs to continue to be successful and help bring new and exciting opportunities to the whole region!
