Bio

Coach Diana’s love for soccer started at a young age while watching Liga MX games with family. She spent summer vacations in Mexico, playing street soccer with the neighborhood kids and worked her way up to becoming Varsity Team Captain through High School. Coach Diana currently works as guidance counselor at a Chicago public high school, where she seeks to increase college access for students. “It was through soccer that I learned the importance of community and leadership. Through my work within Celtics, I hope to empower and build strong players who can play with confidence and love for soccer.”
