For six years from 2007 to 2013 she teamed with Jennifer Kessy who more recently served as her and Klineman's coach. Ross, the teammate of Kessy's, who was the winner of the world championship alongside Kessy in 2009, also was significant on the an international level.

Ross was Walsh Jennings' new partner after May-Treanor's retirement. The duo went on to earn the beach volleyball bronze in the Rio Olympics in 2016. Ross began her college career with the USC Trojans after high school. It was a long time before Ross hit the beach and became a professional. The time she spent at USC was impressive. The year 2000 was her freshman year. saw her earn the Pac-10 and NCAA Freshman of the Year awards and be an All-American. Additionally, she assisted her Trojans get to the Final Four. Her sophomore year was the time she experienced a devastating personal setback, but she was able to be a second All-American. In her last two seasons as a member of the Trojans in the program the team was led to success by winning two consecutive national championships. In 2003-04, Ross was named the top female volleyball player on the collegiate scene in the United States by the Honda Sports Award. Ross studied at USC in International Relations. Unfortunately, Ross mother Margie did not get to see Ross rise to the top levels of beach volleyball fame. Ross lost the breast cancer that she battled in 2001. Ross was then a sophomore. But she still keeps her parents close to her the heart. Margie is a source of inspiration throughout her life, as well as on the beaches.
