I am a native of Columbus, Ohio, and a recent graduate from Denison University with a Bachelor’s Degree in Athletic Training and Sports Management. I played Varsity Volleyball as an Outside Hitter all four years at Denison, and in 2007, I lead my team and the NCAC conference in kills and points scored, and was recognized on the NCAC All-Conference Honorable Mention Team.

Before Denison, I graduated from Bishop Ready High School in 2005, where I played Varsity Volleyball, Basketball, and Track and Field all four years, and was named Division III Second Team All-District (2004) in volleyball, and participated in the District 10 All Star Classic in Basketball (2005).  During my four years in high school, I also played club volleyball at the national level for Central Ohio Volleyball Club (2005), Matchpoint (2004), and Cap City Volleyball Club (2003).

This past spring, I coached for Central Ohio Volleyball Club, where I was the assistant coach for the 18 age group National Team. During my senior year at Denison, I was one of the Strength and Conditioning Coach’s assistants where I helped run daily activities in the weight room and sports facility with the different Varsity teams. My first three years at Denison, I worked in the Athletic Training Room and assisted athletes with different sports-related medical treatments and rehabilitation exercises. These days, I am currently working part time for an Executive Recruiting Firm located in Dublin, OH.

Some of my other interests besides volleyball are traveling, playing tennis, rock climbing, weight training, and numerous other physical activities. My entire family, besides my immediate family, live in Europe, and I have traveled there numerous times, mostly throughout Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Italy, and Austria. I was raised speaking three different languages fluently (Polish, Slovak, and English), and continue to speak those everyday. 

I have been involved with volleyball since the 4^th grade and have enjoyed my time as a player and so far as a coach, and would love to continue my involvement in the sport for as long as I can!
