About Me
Originally from Beaumont, TX but currently live in League City, I attended Clifton J. Ozen High School, named in honor of my great-uncle. As a multisport athlete, I received scholarship offers in volleyball, basketball, track, and academics, ultimately accepting a full athletic scholarship to play volleyball at Prairie View A&M University. I graduated with a BBA in Management Information Systems, later earning an MBA in General Management and an Ed.S. in Educational Leadership. Currently, I am an Early College HS Director, certified personal trainer, and proud mother of three incredible children pursuing an Ed.D in Instructional Design as well as a Superintendent certification.
Volleyball Background
My volleyball journey began at age 12 with the Tri-City Slammers. As a starting middle blocker throughout my college career, I earned numerous accolades, including All-SWAC, 1st and 2nd Team All-Conference, Team MVP, and SWAC Kill Leader. I have coached volleyball at various levels, from middle school to varsity, as well as AAU club teams over the past several years. My coaching career spans teams from 14 Adidas, 14 Attack, 16 Select, 16 Power, 17 Power, 18 Power (2 seasons), and I currently coach the 18 Attack team.
Coaching Philosophy
I believe in meeting each player at their current skill level and helping them grow to reach their personal and team goals. Every athlete is unique, with different strengths and developmental needs. Coaching is not a one-size-fits-all approach, so I assess players individually and as a team to create a supportive, customized training environment.
Practice Philosophy
"Give me your best or give me nothing at all." Practice is the foundation for skill development and growth, while game time is for executing what has been learned. I expect my players to give 100% in every practice session. Consistent commitment to improvement transforms a player from a liability into a true asset on the court.
Coaching Strengths
My coaching strengths include precision in OH development, middle blocker training, and instilling a versatile, utility-player mindset among my athletes.
