Working at the Spirit, I’m constantly inspired by my colleagues and Michele’s vision to create the world’s preeminent sports organization. We’re not just rewriting the playbook, we’re creating a legacy that empowers the next generation of women. And I’m honored to play a small part in that movement.”

Every day in the Front Office, I witness firsthand the power of strong female leadership. It’s empowering to work alongside passionate women who are dedicated to breaking barriers and making a meaningful impact in the world of sports. I look forward to the future continuing to fill stadiums so everyone can witness the remarkable talent of the women of the Spirit on and off the pitch.”
Naeela Trindade

“Hearing ‘women’s empowerment’ left an impression with me that these words represented a movement happening somewhere unreachable for me… until I was welcomed by the Washington Spirit and given the opportunity to meet our trailblazing, innovative, and inspiring leader, Michele Kang. I am blessed to be a part of a beautiful journey that is not only literally changing the game for all women in sports, but very much so for professional women in all walks of life. The diversity and volume of impactful & inspirational women leaders at the Spirit alone, brings to light the true essence and meaning of ‘International Women’s Day’.”
Theresa McDonnell
Chief Operating Officer
“Playing a role in bringing Michele’s groundbreaking vision to life is a highlight of my career. We are rewriting the playbook for women’s sports and creating incredible opportunities for girls & women to stay and thrive in the sport they love.”
Destinee McDonald
Account Executive, Group Sales
“Working for the Spirit means being part of the change that puts our vision into action, training females as females and creating a high-performance culture.”
Dawn Scott
Vice President, Performance and Innovation
“I am incredibly honored to work with so many inspirational women every single day in the many elements of my role – part of our mission as a multidisciplinary team across our teams is to educate and empower women about their own unique physiology and help them understand how to apply that to all facets of their health and performance.”
Michele Kang
Owner
“We are not going to borrow a manual from the men. We want to understand women’s physiology and biology and train our athletes according to that.”
