Hallee began playing volleyball at age 10 and quickly developed a passion for the game. By 13, she was competing at a high level, and her love for the sport has only grown since. A three-year letterman and team captain at Norman High School, she earned COAC All-State Honorable Mention honors during her senior season.

She continued her volleyball journey at Kansas City Kansas Community College (KCKCC), where she played for two years and was named team captain for the 2022–2023 season—a testament to her leadership and the respect of her coaches and teammates.

A proud RISE alum, Hallee helped lead her 18’s team to the USA Girls Junior National Championships. Her commitment to the program has continued beyond her playing days, serving first as a volunteer assistant for the 17s and then as an assistant coach for the 15-1s last season.

Currently, Hallee is the Head JV Coach at Norman High and is pursuing a degree in Mathematics Education at the University of Oklahoma. Her passion for teaching and mentoring is evident both in the classroom and on the court.

Being part of the RISE coaching staff is especially meaningful to Hallee. As a former athlete in the program, she credits the coaches and culture at RISE for shaping her into not only the player and coach she is today—but also the woman she’s proud to be.
