She’s the beach volleyball star who soared to the top of the rankings alongside Heather Bansley, claiming the number one spot on the 2018 FIVB World Tour. That same standout year, she earned well-deserved recognition as an FIVB Best Blocker—an achievement that truly highlighted her dominance on the sand. She and Bansley continued their impressive journey by representing their country at the Summer Olympics in Tokyo 2020, showcasing their talent on one of the biggest stages in sports.
Before all the fame and international acclaim, she was already making waves in collegiate volleyball, playing at York University where she honed her skills and built a strong foundation. Interestingly, athletic excellence runs in the family—her father, Herb Johnson, played basketball at the University of Tulsa and even got drafted by the Cleveland Cavaliers. It’s clear that her path to success was shaped by both hard work and a legacy of athleticism.
She has posted some of the standout moments from her volleyball journey on her Instagram account, bvuilleumier, which has attracted over 280,000 followers. Alongside Melissa Humana-Paredes, she represented Canada as a flag bearer at the 2023 Pan American Games. Standing just under 5’11”, she’s notably tall for a woman.
