Sophomore - Dinah Sime

Coach Sime is originally from Minnetonka, MN, where she played both volleyball and softball in high school. After earning her associate’s degree in Veterinary Technology from National American University, she discovered her true passion for coaching. With over 14 years of experience, Coach Sime has worked with high school and club teams all over the Gallatin Valley, earning a great reputation for helping athletes grow.

Volleyball has always been a big part of her life, and she loves how the sport helps players develop their skills while bringing people together. What she enjoys most about coaching is focusing on the fundamentals and creating a tight-knit, supportive environment where athletes can thrive. 

Outside of coaching, Coach Sime works at Jeff Weedin State Farm and still finds time to balance work, volleyball, and her family. When she’s not in the gym, you can find her chasing after her kids and spending time with friends and family.

“I am incredibly grateful to be a part of the Bozeman Hawk Volleyball Program. Having the opportunity to be a part of this community and share in the development of these athletes is truly a dream. I can’t wait to get in the gym and share my knowledge & experience with the next generation of Hawk athletes, while also learning from & working with some of the best coaches in the valley. GO HAWKS!”
