Kelsey Quinn has just been announced as the new assistant coach of the On Athletics Club. She will be working closely alongside coach Dathan Ritzenhein and team operations manager Andrew Wheating. She brings with her a decade of coaching experience at the NCAA level.

She just spent three years as the assistant coach at Utah. She also has experience from stops in Portland, Washington, Warner Pacific, Grand View University and Iowa State. She was actually a sprinter at the University of Iowa, who qualified for the NCAA Championships in the 400m hurdles.

So how did she end up landing a job with one of the best professional distance teams? It started with a LinkedIn posting and then a series of interviews. In this conversation, you’ll get to know Kelsey better and hear all the ins and outs of the process. She also shares what goals she has for herself and the team in the coming months.
