A right-handed player from Indianapolis, Foltz was a rising star in junior tennis who was unable to fulfil her promise on the professional tour, in a career which was curtailed by serious wrist injuries.

From 1989 to 1991 she toured professionally and she is now a psychologist living in Arizona.
Foltz starred as tennis player Missy in the 1982 film Spring Fever , with Carling Bassett. [3]
