General
DUAL DISCIPLINES
She has coached both sitting and able-bodied volleyball. "Coaching sitting volleyball has expanded my overall approach to coaching as no two athletes' bodies are exactly the same and therefore, every skill and movement needs to be adapted to best fit each athletes' strengths rather than being taught from a prescribed method to teaching the skill. Overall, we are trying to push the boundaries and apply new technique and tactics while growing the game of sitting volleyball." (worldparavolley.org, 15 Sep 2020)

EDUCATION
In 2016 she graduated with a master's degree in coaching from the University of Alberta in Canada. (navc.ca, 2016)
