"From the moment I connected with the program, it was clear that there is a strong culture of passion, hard work, and genuine care for the student-athletes. I'm excited to build meaningful relationships with the team, contribute to their growth both in and out of the gym, and help continue moving the program forward. I can't wait to get to campus and get to work."
 


Keller has Gymnastics Club coaching experience as well as she worked for the Exceleration Gymnastics Center in Toledo during her time in Northwest Ohio.  Keller coached athletes ages 4–18, across Xcel and Levels 4–9, providing instruction tailored to varying skill levels.
