Coach Taylor is from Round Rock and played indoor at RRHS, but beach has always been her true love! She started playing beach the summer before her freshman year of high school and loved that you don’t have to be the tallest or strongest player to win. She played at LSU for 2 years and transferred to TCU her junior year where she played primarily in the 1s and 2s pairs, finishing her senior year as the 5th ranked D1 beach volleyball player in the country. She was also a 2-year captain and member of the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee. She graduated with her BS in Neuroscience and now works at IBM. Outside of volleyball, she loves to hang out with her two dogs, Oakley and Lily. She also loves to bake and has her own home bakery called The Sprinkled Frog Bakeshop. Coach Taylor is excited to be a part of ATX Beach and teach the next generation of volleyball players how awesome beach volleyball is!

Hi! I’m Dakota Goin. I’ve been coaching indoor with Austin Juniors for 4 years. I am also the program director and head coach of boys volleyball at St. Stephen’s Episcopal School. I’ve been coaching beach for about 2 years now and I coached 4 teams to qualify for avp junior nationals in 2024. I still love to play and compete in tournaments here in Austin.
I’m available for private lessons mostly after 6:30pm and later or anytime before 3pm.
