About

Passionate and dedicated travel softball coach with over 14 years of coaching experience, including 5 years at the travel level. My journey in the game began at the age of 8 and has shaped a lifelong commitment to softball both on and off the field. I competed in travel softball with the Columbus Challengers and the Columbus Peaches while also playing for Hardaway High School before continuing my career at Chattahoochee Valley Community College. I primarily played pitcher, second base, and third base, giving me a well-rounded understanding of the game and the ability to develop athletes across multiple positions. I am married to my wonderful husband, Linx, and we are proud parents to our three children—daughters Abbi and Tinnley, and our son Trace.

Coaching Philosophy

My coaching philosophy centers on building strong fundamentals, increasing game IQ, and fostering a competitive but supportive team environment. I emphasize accountability, discipline, and confidence, helping players grow not only as athletes but as leaders and teammates. Progress over perfection.
