Coach Tommi brings a strong background in volleyball with approximately 10 years of playing experience, competing as an outside hitter, middle hitter, and defensive specialist. She also brings seven years of coaching experience, including five years at Northrop and two years at North Side.
Tommi is passionate about using volleyball as a way to help athletes grow both on and off the court. She believes coaching is about more than developing skills—it is about building confidence, encouraging athletes to challenge themselves, and helping them become stronger teammates and individuals.
One of Tommi’s favorite parts of coaching is watching athletes push beyond their comfort zones, support one another through challenges, and experience the excitement of accomplishing their goals together. She strives to create an environment where athletes feel supported, motivated, and confident in their ability to improve.
For Tommi, volleyball is more than just a sport. It is an opportunity to develop character, confidence, teamwork, and lifelong connections — lessons she hopes every athlete carries with them long after they leave the court.
