Sunsational Vetted Since 2026
I have been swimming since I was about five years old with my local swim team and continued swimming competitively throughout my life, including on my high school swim team. I began coaching in high school, working with young swimmers from potty-trained age through swimmers becoming confident in the deep end. After graduating, I also coached with the Lake County Channel Cats, my local swim team back home, where I worked with beginners, young adults, and swimmers preparing for competition. I am also completing my music teaching credential program in May 2025 and will officially begin teaching in August 2025, so I love creating a supportive, encouraging learning environment where students can build confidence and grow at their own pace.
