With its facilities, location and support, everything is in place for us to be successful and continue the momentum you see across the board from all of TCU's sports programs. I'm committed to providing the best student-athlete experience, building a championship culture and leading a women's basketball program that makes TCU proud. I would like to thank Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Jeremiah Donati, Deputy Athletics Director Mike Sinquefield and Senior Associate Athletics Director Kim Johnson for this amazing opportunity. My family and I cannot wait to make TCU and Fort Worth our home."
