This will be Jordan's first season coaching with Athena. She started playing volleyball when she was 9 years old on her 4th-grade team. At 11, she began playing club and continued to play competitively through high school. Jordan remained active in intramurals during college at the University of Portland and continues to play for adult leagues in the Portland area. Jordan's coaching resume includes 6 seasons as the Assistant Varsity Volleyball Coach at Westside Christian High School and 3 years of head coaching experience at Live Aloha Volleyball Academy and Blues VBC. As a coach, she believes that positive coaching empowers athletes, aims to provide her teams with the tools they need to become well-rounded volleyball players – grounded in fundamentals and footwork, and strives to create an environment where athletes can learn both about the game and themselves.
