"She plays favorites. There were times when the whole team was punished for something one person did, while the person who actually caused the problem didn’t seem to have any consequences. It also seemed like some athletes could get away with things that others couldn’t, which definitely gave the impression that she had favorites. She also did not care if someone was injured. At times it seemed like athletes were expected to just keep pushing even when they were hurt or needed time to recover. There is a difference between pushing athletes to work hard and running them into the ground. I don’t think that line was always respected. I also don’t think injured athletes always felt supported or like they were still an important part of the team when they couldn’t practice or compete. At times, it felt like performance and winning were more important than the athletes themselves. She doesn’t care about athletes as people, unless they are her favorites otherwise she just cares about what you can do for the team."

"Brought the program back at Nova, she gave me the opportunity to be a NCAA athlete in a new sport. Was patient with all of as we learned and taught us to be better teammates. Grateful for everything she taught me and love Kim Kiwi, always felt like she cared about me. Without all the things she did this past year, nsu would never have been able to have a team. Sad she left but thankful her and Emily were my coaches. "

"MSU made a huge mistake hiring her. Abusive, manipulative, and a liar. Wasn’t even trusted to be with athletes alone by the time she was fired. "

Cares About Academics Disorganized Believes In You Easy To Get Along With Great Communicator
"She was my coach through a coaching change, covid, the death of a teammate, and a shooting on campus. She was understanding and compassionate in all those situations towards our team and staff, to an extreme. I think people sometimes took advantage of her being a nice person then lost their s**t when she set a boundary. I grew tremendously as an athlete and person because of her, I have nothing but the utmost respect and gratitude for working with her. I felt like she cared about the team and was knowledgeable but never really had the opportunity to coach a normal team due to constant tragedy and crisis management. The biggest issue I had with her was she hired staff who continuously undermined her, created a lot of division that was unnecessary. She should’ve fired most of the staff on numerous occasions - Austin, Kaitlin, Ronnie, Veronika, Farrah, Egan, Maddie - were HORRIBLE staff members. Outright bad at their jobs, seemed like she was constantly doing everyone’s work. It seemed like certain staff members were constantly working against her and trying to get the team to join them. She also kept people on the roster that didn’t belong, you can’t do the workouts but keep complaining? Just stop. The haters are those she was too kind to, they would’ve never been happy and they aren’t happy now either. They just wanted the attention they got from complaining. To say she didn’t care about you or respect you is a lie, there were no investigations or incidents, you’re being petty and posting lies. She deserved better than how many people treated her. "
