Brown joined FAU in May of 2019 after nearly six years as part of the staff at Jacksonville State University in Jacksonville, Alabama.

In her first year, the Owls posted a 15-win season, the third-most ever recorded (and highest total since 2005). An 8-1-1 Conference USA mark made for the second straight regular season title for the squad, and the team would advance to the title game of the C-USA Championship as well. Owl team members earned league Midfielder and Co-Freshman of the Year, five All-C-USA honors (plus two All-Freshman nods) and four All-Region honors.

In 2021, Brown and the FAU staff led the Owls to their seventh consecutive appearance in the Conference USA Championship Tournament and a trip to the quarterfinals. Three Owls earned United Soccer Coaches All-South Region honors in Amanda Martin, Gi Krstec, and Miracle Porter. That trio, along with Jodi Smith, all earned All-Conference USA recognition.

The 2020-21 year saw the season pushed back until spring and the program dealt with multiple stops and starts and a limited schedule. Despite a sluggish beginning of the year, the Owls rebounded to go 4-1-1 in C-USA play, earn the C-USA East Division's second seed, and advance to the postseason tournament for the sixth consecutive season. Four team members were All-C-USA as well as All-Region in the difficult season.

Brown was on staff with JSU after a fantastic playing career at nearby North Alabama, beginning as a graduate assistant with the Gamecocks before eventually taking over the role as the program’s recruiting coordinator. During her time there, Brown recruited players who were recognized with multiple All-Ohio Valley Conference honors, including All-OVC Second Team and All-Newcomer.

Also during her coaching career, Brown worked with Northeast Alabama Fusion F.C. as head coach, as the striker director for No. 1 Soccer Camps, and as a head and assistant coach with the Olympic Development Program in Birmingham.

Brown was a three-time Daktronics All-American at North Alabama, twice was named NSCAA All-South Region, and three times to the Daktronics All-South Region First Team as well. All four years, she was an All-Gulf South Conference honoree. She helped lead the Lions to a 2011 GSC Conference Championship, and was as successful off the pitch as on, earning 2011 CoSIDA Capital One Academic All-American honors, and three times, was a recipient of the GSC “Top Ten” Award.

A native of Bognor Regis, England, Brown earned her undergraduate degree from UNA in physical education, graduating magna cum laude. While serving as JSU’s grad assistant, she completed her master’s work with a 4.0 GPA in sport management. She also completed her United Soccer Coaches Premier Diploma in January of 2019.
