I fell in love with swimming at a young age and began swimming competitively at just 5 years old, continuing all the way through college. In high school, I discovered my passion for teaching when I started giving swim lessons and found it incredibly rewarding to help swimmers gain confidence in the water. After college, I continued sharing my love of the sport by coaching at my local YMCA, where I spent 7 seasons coaching the swim team and teaching lessons since September 2016. With years of experience teaching swimmers from infants to adults, I focus on creating a safe, supportive, and fun environment that helps each student reach their goals. Whether its teaching water safety, building foundational skills, or refining technique, I love helping swimmers develop both confidence and a lifelong love for the water.
