Aleisha Cramer-Rose is in her third year training the players of Celtic Storm and draws on her success, commitment and vast experience as a player in her training sessions.  Rose is also in her third year as an assistant coach at Brigham Young University.

With the U.S. National Team, Rose is the third youngest player to ever appear for the full national team at 16 years, 141 days when she made her debut on December 16, 1998, against Ukraine in Los Angeles, only Mia Hamm and Kristine Lilly were younger. Over 1998 and 1999, she played for the USA at the Under-16, Under-18, Under-21, and full National Team levels.  She earned her second cap on September 26, 1999, against Brazil, at Mile High Stadium in her hometown of Denver, Colorado. 

As the youngest member of the US National team, Rose turned heads in the soccer world. "She is the most impactful player in women's college soccer today," said then U.S. National Team coach April Heinrich to the San Diego Union Tribune. "She changed the game. At 19 years of age, that's about as good a compliment as you'll get from me without calling her the next Michael Jordan."
