Russ Rose Then (2000): Nadia has more than put in her time here and has been a great role model for the young people, not only with how she works, but also with the type of person she is.  She has always been a great team player.  I expect her to make some solid contributions this season.

Russ Rose Now (2025): Nadia and Katie [Schumacher]. Partners in crime.  They both redshirted in their first year.  Nadia was a great teammate. Very strong net player, quick in the middle, very strong. After college she went on and played professionally for a while, and also was in coaching for a while [head coach at DePaul from 2010 to 2017].  I think she works as a fundraiser at Notre Dame.

Before Penn State: Four-time all conference selection at Lincoln-Way High School; Volleyball Monthly “Fab 50” selection in 1997; two-time team MVP; chosen as captain her junior year; member of the USA Junior National Team for 1999, 1998, and 1997; played club three seasons for Chicago Juniors.
