Career
Cohen began her career in sports administration as a Division III volleyball coach, where she took on extraneous roles as the "de facto strength-and-conditioning coach" and "the staff nutritionist" due to her school's small budget while writing to Division I athletic directors looking for a meeting or interview. She became the seventeenth athletic director of the University of Washington on May 25, 2016. ==References==
