In this episode of Her Y, we sit down with Kim Santiago—former UVU basketball player, nurse, Provo City councilwoman, and wife of BYU Athletic Director Brian Santiago. Kim shares her journey as a mother of four, including raising a son with autism, and reflects on her time balancing family life with leadership and public service. She opens up about the resilience she learned while playing sports, her faith that has anchored her through every season of life, and the role she and Brian now play in supporting BYU athletes both on and off the court. You won't want to miss the story of the woman at the heart of Cougar athletics!
