Prior to Alvernia, Cook served on the coaching staff at Scranton University. In her first year as assistant coach at Scranton, the Royals finished 26-4.  Prior to the 2014-15 season, Coach Strong found it necessary to retire, elevating Cook's responsibilities as the only full-time women's basketball staff member on campus.  She and a part-time, Interim Head Coach continued the Scranton legacy posting a 24-4 mark, returning the Royals to the NCAA Championships.

Cook graduated from Muhlenberg with a Bachelor of Arts in English with a secondary education certification. While at Muhlenberg, Cook was a starting forward, where she graduated eighth in career scoring with 974 points, and led the Muhls to four NCAA Championship appearances—advancing to the Sweet 16 twice. She was a member of four Centennial Conference Champions, including the conference's first ever undefeated team when the 2008-09 team finished with an 18-0 conference record.  The Muhls posted a record of 91-23 in Cook's four years.

After graduation, Cook pursued a Masters in Education and spent two years as a graduate assistant at Wilkes University.
