Hi! I recently graduated college, where I played volleyball. Before and while playing volleyball, I was a very competitive swimmer. During high school, I was a lifeguard. Then, directly after, I became a coach and gave private lessons for the following three years. I have been giving private lessons on and off since October 2021 while I have focused on my professional career. I want to continue to help teach children how to be confident and enjoy the water. I love water sports and surfing, so its very important to me to pass it along and have more people playing in the water. My personality is outgoing and energetic. I want everything in life to be fun, so the lesson I will give is fun while very focused to challenge the student.

I am a former all-American swimmer who swam all through school. I am currently a foster resource parent with the county, and I have coached age group swimmers at the club level. I have worked with ages 3-18. I believe learning is more successful when it is fun. A student that desires to come back each day will stick with the activity, and then learning comes through repetition. I believe in praise for positive actions and by reinforcing those actions the individual will find success.
