Coach Carter began coaching in 2011 as the La Cueva High School head coach in New Mexico, where they reigned as the District Champions and competed in the state tournament, all four years of her tenure as head coach. Players from her program went on to play in Division-I, Division-II and in the NAIA, all while holding GPA’s of 3.6 and above.
In 2015, she joined Menlo College as an assistant coach and quickly graduated to be named the head coach at Notre Dame de Namur University a year later. Coach Carter returned to Menlo College in 2018 as an assistant coach and also was added to the College staff for two seasons before moving to the Northwest where she was named head coach at Shoreline Community College. In 2022 Coach Carter was hired on as an assistant coach at the University of Washington where she assisted with the team’s offensive development.
In addition, Coach Carter will be bringing her experience in mental strength training for our athletes. Coach Carter is the owner of LeadHership Athletics, where she teaches female athletes how to become confident leaders through sport.
Her mission in life is to arm athletes, students, teams, coaches, and teachers with the identity, confidence, and mental skills they need to succeed at anything in life, not just the game or society's perception of success.
