Sunsational Vetted Since 2026
I started off as a 6 and under at a local summer swim club. I quickly fell in love with the sport. I went on to compete for two private club swim teams as well as the high school swim team. As a retired competitive swimmer, I have not lost my love. I find myself training in the pool weekly because I believe theres always room for growth and improvement. My goal as a swim instructor is to provide the necessary skills required to stay safe in and around water. My hope is always that on top of these life savings skills I aim to share my love for water with as many individuals as possible. I feel the most free, the most at peace, and the most myself when I am in the water.
