“I am inspired to coach because of my past coaches and playing experiences. I have been blessed to learn from some of the best coaches in the game and it has given me opportunities that I could not have afforded on my own. I want to be that person or one of them for some of the upcoming players where they look back and say 'wow, I learned so much from her' ”.
