Nicole grew up in Elkhorn, Wisconsin where she was a three sport athlete competing in volleyball, basketball and softball. Nicole moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota to attend Bethel University where she majored in Secondary Life Science Education, and now teaches middle school science. While at Bethel, I was a member of the volleyball team from 2010-2013 where I was an outside hitter, and had the privilege of being a part of the NCAA tournament in 2011.

My love for volleyball continued after my years playing, and I became an assistant coach at Bethel University for 6 seasons. I quickly realized I loved developing players and wanted to pursue head coaching opportunities at a club level. I have had 5 years of experience being a head coach and working with athletes from ages 15-18. In addition, I enjoy working with athletes on individual skill development through private lessons.

I have a tremendous love for the game of volleyball. There aren’t many things that I enjoy more than being in the gym with athletes, passing on my love and knowledge for the game and watching them grow and develop as athletes and people.
