A current USA Women's Youth National Team Coach (U19 & U20) and former NWSL professional player, associate head coach Brittany Cameron has over 15 years of coaching experience.

In 2025, Cameron helped the Deacs to their 24th program NCAA Tournament appearance. Additionally, Wake Forest earned six total shutouts, with goalkeeper Valentina Amaral reaching a program-best career goals against average (0.84). 

In 2024, Cameron helped guide the Demon Deacons to their second program College Cup berth, as well as seven ranked wins, including a program-first win over a No.1 ranked squad. Under her coaching, the Deacs allowed just 11 goals in 24 games, with goalkeeper Valentina Amaral also clinching the program-best 0.69 goals against average. Following the success of the 2024 national runner-up finish, Wake Forest sent eight Demon Deacons to the professional level, spanning across the NWSL, Northern Super League, USL Super League and overseas. In her time at Wake Forest, Cameron has helped send 10 total Deacs to the professional stage. 

Cameron became the only Black woman at the Power Five level to hold the title of either Associate Head Coach or Head Coach, as her trailblazing path has and continues to serve as inspiration for others. In 2021, Cameron was announced as the new goalkeeper coach for the United States U-20 Youth National Team as they won the gold medal at the CONCACAF U-20 Championship in the Dominican Republic.

Cameron graduated from the University of San Diego in 2008 with a bachelor's degree in communication. The Dublin, California, native was the 2008 West Coast Conference Defender of the Year and lettered four seasons for the Toreros.
