I got into volleyball from watching my brother play while he was in high school. I played in high school and as a setter. I had a desire to learn more about the sport, so I became a student manager for the women’s team in hopes of learning from their coach and observing the player/coach interaction. Shortly after I graduated from Westerville North, I returned as the varsity volleyball coach. At the time, I had just turned 20 and was coaching mostly 18-year-old girls. I began coaching club volleyball at Mintonette as a way to continue to learn. After coaching at Westerville North for three seasons, I became the Director of Operations for the women’s volleyball team at Ohio State.
