Acts like a high schooler by talking about her athletes behind their backs. Petty. B****. Doesn't care about your personal life, mental health issues, or family issues. Calls her athletes fat and stupid. Doesn't know how to motivate anyone. Thinks insulting you will make you be a better athlete

Probably the most vindictive b**** I ever met. Straight up horrible person who is fake to your face. Loves her diver's but doesn't care about the swimmers at all. Belittles athletes who struggle in the classroom basically calling them stupid, useless and fat. Always talking about other swimmer's and gossiping. Has an affair with head swim coach.

She is an awful human being. Decent diving coach but treats the swimmers (who she is technically THE assistant coach for) like trash. Has made multiple abusive statements towards swimmers on the team, visibly talks behind people's backs, and acts as if having a degree in psychology gives her the right to say the things she says.
