14 Baden - Oksana Greydinger

With over 30 years of experience in playing, coaching, and refereeing volleyball, I am excited to come back to coaching at ITVC for the 2024-2025 season. In my younger years, I was lucky to have been coached by my father in Ukraine. I came to the USA on a volleyball scholarship and had an amazing opportunity to earn a college degree while playing volleyball at Georgia State University (NCAA DI) in Atlanta GA. My coaching journey started with coaching my daughters in club. I have watched them reach the highs of Open Bid at USAV National tournaments and navigated the lows of injury recovery. Over the past 4 years, you would have seen me on the sidelines of Sammamish High School as a volunteer coach. I am proud to have contributed to the success of these players, qualifying for the State tournament for the 1st time in 25 years in 2022-2023 school year, and again in 2023-2024. In fall, you might see me referring high school volleyball games. When I am not coaching, I am managing a portfolio of software projects for Expedia Group in Seattle. In my free time, I enjoy outdoors and traveling.
