Anessa Fantino

Anessa is a proud Brevard County, Florida native with a lifelong passion for volleyball, coaching, and fitness. She began playing volleyball as a freshman at Titusville High School, where she competed all four years of high school while also playing club volleyball.  Although she started as a defensive specialist, her versatility allowed her to excel in multiple positions, including right side and middle hitter. Anessa discovered her passion for coaching during her sophomore year of high school while volunteering at the YMCA.  After graduating from Titusville High School in 2020, she returned to coach the freshman volleyball team for several seasons.  She is now entering her fourth year as a club volleyball coach and her third year with Cape Coast Volleyball Club.  Beyond volleyball, Anessa is deeply committed to health and fitness. In June 2023, she earned her NASM Certified Personal Trainer (NASM-CPT) certification and enjoys working with both athletes and non-athletes to help them build strength, improve performance, and achieve their personal fitness goals.
