Red Rock Girls 15-1

I am originally from San Diego and moved to the bay area 3 years ago after graduating from UC Santa Barbara with a Bachelor’s of Science in Zoology. I currently work at an environmental laboratory as an Operations Manager overseeing microscopy machinery and geological analysts.

I’ve played volleyball for the past 11 years, from middle school to present time. In college I played for UC Santa Barbara’s club A-team in SCCVL Division I as a middle hitter 2016-2020. Our team peaked in national rankings at #5 in 2018. I am currently head coach of the 12-1’s at Breakwater VBC in Half Moon Bay and will be joining Red Rock’s San Francisco beach program. I love coaching young girls who have a passion for volleyball and aim to give them guidance they can carry throughout their volleyball career.

I now play indoor for fun as middle & outside hitter. In my free time I love thrifting & fashion and playing with my cat, Sookie.

Growing up in the Bay Area, Mia played for her middle school, high school, and select volleyball clubs, including Red Rock!

Mia emphasizes ball control and court awareness in her playing and coaching. She believes that mastering these fundamentals builds confidence and versatility on the court. As she steps into her coaching role at Red Rock, Mia is eager to help players develop these essential skills and thrive both individually and as a team.
