Hello! My name is Chianti Raddavero, but most people call me Curly. I am a college volleyball athlete at Whittier, where I’ve been playing for two years. Over the last 8 years, I’ve played in numerous positions, from setter to outside hitter, and I currently play as a Libero and Outside Hitter for Whittier’s team.

I am majoring in Kinesiology to pursue a career in Sports Medicine. In addition to my studies and playing volleyball, I’ve been coaching and learning alongside Coach Lucky, Gel, and Dave. It is an honor to assist them at Blue Banner Volleyball, and I strive to provide young, talented athletes with the motivation and inspiration they need to thrive in the sport we all love.

Fun fact: my hair is curly!
