Nancy became a part of the WAVE team in 2017. She has her Master's degree in Coaching and Athletic Administration.

With 25+ years of coaching experience, she brings a philosophy to her coaching that volleyball is not life, but it can teach us so much about how to live life. This great sport requires tremendous passion, commitment and teamwork. It provides us the opportunity to build relationships on and off the court through competition. She has successfully built and implemented this philosophy during her tenure with OLP (1996-2004), SDVBC (2006-2017), and as the head coach of Westview High School since 2007. She was also named the Miramar College Head Coach for Indoor and Beach Volleyball in 2022.

Volleyball may be a passion of hers, however, she did not play collegiately while attending UCSD. She was a tri-sport all-section athlete in high school playing volleyball, basketball and softball.

She was voted “best dancer” in middle school, so might be worth it to ask her to show you some moves in her spare time during which she also likes to spending trying out new foods, hiking, and supporting the Bay Area pro teams. Go Dubs! She believes there is a positive correlation to being comfortable dancing and learning how to play volleyball.
