Hydration is really important, particularly as a beach volleyball player.

Beach volleyball has taken me all around the world.

All of the beach volleyball coaches and all the top players, everything is based out of Southern California.

It's really easy to get caught up in all the catty-ness of the volleyball.

Started playing indoor volleyball in 5th grade. Started playing club volleyball when I was 15. Played in high school and at Florida Gulf Coast University. Started playing beach volleyball after graduating from FGCU.
