My name is Taylan Cook. I'm originally from Colorado and moved to San Diego, California as a teenager. I've been playing volleyball since I was 7 years old! I was a libero and played 5 years of NCAA D1 Volleyball at Loyola Chicago and CSUN. I was an assistant coach at CSUN for the men's program and I'm currently the assistant coach at St. Edwards University for the women! I'm also the Recruiting Coordinator for AJV Boys.

I believe volleyball is as much a mental sport as a physical one! My approach centers on developing the whole athlete — not just their skills, but their confidence, resilience, and ability to perform under pressure. I focus on building a strong technical foundation while helping players understand the “why” behind each drill, so they can think the game, not just react to it!
