History Behind The Sports Mind

An accomplished athlete and coach in her own right, Ann has earned individual and team titles in intercollegiate volleyball and basketball and is a former world-ranked tennis player. As a result, she offers a rare combination of personal experience and professional expertise. From goal setting and transition, Ann understands firsthand the issues competitors -- athletes, coaches, parents and business people encounter.  Faced with a life-threatening illness at a young age, Ann instills in her clients and audiences an inspiration that can only come from overcoming such an obstacle -- and achieving one's goals. In fact, she created and designed The Sports Mind to help competitors develop to their fullest potential through the use of performance planning and mental training techniques. Due to Ann's success, her skills and services have been requested not only by athletes, but businesses, companies and corporations as well. As a result she has become a much sought-after speaker throughout the nation and abroad.
