Mishel grew up in Los Angeles CA. She played every sport she could find and ended up loving volleyball which she played into college.
Mishel met Matt at Hume Lake Christian camps in 1988 since his cabin was next to the volleyball court.
Mishel started coaching volleyball in 1993 and has been able to pursue that passion at many different levels. She is currently coaching high school and middle school volleyball and enjoys helping girls reach their full potential as leaders and as athletes.
Mishel homeschooled their 5 children and now that that chapter has ended she is excited to be coaching at Mount Vernon High School and serves Skagit County as an Area Representative.
