Kaylie Collins

She considers herself a foodie, and her favorite meal might be a gourmet burger or an In-N-Out burger with fries.

For a last meal, she would order a Double-Double with one slice of cheese, grilled onions, regular fries, and a Neapolitan shake from In-N-Out.

Her first concert was Carrie Underwood, which she attended during her first solo flight as a child. Her parents sent her to Las Vegas to meet her aunt, who took her to the show.

She also attended many concerts as a kid, including Hannah Montana, Corbin Bleu, and Demi Lovato, thanks to her music-loving neighbor who is now a producer.

She admires artists like Hozier and Adele and dreams of seeing them live. Recently, she has been listening to Lizzy McAlpine, whose buttery voice reminds her of artists like Phoebe Bridgers. She also appreciates classic rock icons like Pat Benatar and Stevie Nicks.

She used to sing with her dad’s band, performing songs like "Heartbreaker" by Pat Benatar when they needed a female vocalist.

She likes to have routines and time them out specifically.

Her daily routine includes drinking coffee or matcha. She starts her day with coffee, two eggs, and toast, which she enjoys while sitting outside to decompress.

She earned Bachelor’s in Communications and Master’s in Applied Psychology from the University of Southern California.

English was her favorite subject because she loved reading, writing, and thinking deeply about various topics.

She draws inspiration from sports documentaries like the Mark Cavendish documentary about cycling or The Deepest Breath about deep diving. She finds these narratives motivating and reflective of the broader world of sports and life.

Her favorite movie is Ten Things I Hate About You, a nostalgic choice from her younger years. She also enjoys How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days.

Before pursuing football, she dreamed of being a speechwriter for the President. Though she now finds the idea stressful, she thought it was the coolest job at the time.

She hopes to explore more of Indonesia, having visited Bali and fallen in love with its distinct culture.

Her favorite travel experiences include Barcelona and Annecy, France, a peaceful town nestled in the French Alps that felt like a second home.

She was part of the NWSL Players Association as a Team Representative.

She is in a relationship with Amy Harrison, a professional footballer from Western Sydney Wanderers and a TV presenter.
