Jackie began her volleyball journey 28 years ago, showcasing her passion and talent throughout high school. After taking a break to focus on her university studies, she rediscovered her love for the game through drop-in sessions. Competing against ex-professional and ex-collegiate players, Jackie honed her skills and deepened her appreciation for volleyball.
