She earned her PhD from Michigan State and dedicated her dissertation as a love story to Black women volleyball athletes who competed in non-U.S. professional leagues. Her academic research, coaching experience, and commitment to disruption informs our conversation about conference realignment across the NCAA ecosystem.

How will conference realignment affect enrollment at Division I mid-majors, and Division II and III institutions?
How are athletic departments taking care of their staff who will also be affected by increased travel?
What additional mental health resources will be dedicated to college athlete well-being?

These are just some of the questions we dive into on this episode!

Unfiltered and very timely! Let's walk!
