Wanted to be a mermaid when I grew up, but settled on being on my high school swim team and participating in Junior Lifeguard programs most summers. Went on to teach individual and group swim lessons to children 0-14 years, adults, and students with special needs. Im especially passionate about familiarizing infants with water play and song, teaching safe swimming to little ones, and helping adults overcome their fear of water.

As a lifelong swimmer, I have been teaching swim lessons since September 2016 with children aged 2-18 and adults. I was a competitive swimmer and am now a coach, so I can teach all levels from getting comfortable in the water to swim team technique. I have also been a lifeguard for 9 years, so I am also able to maintain and teach water safety. I love the water, and I hope your student will too!

Hello! My name is Gabi, and I have been a swim instructor for Sunsational, off and on, since November 2019. While working as a swim instructor, I was also a part-time lifeguard, meaning I was constantly around children and adults. As a lifeguard, my number one priority was safety, and I carry that into my lessons. I try my best to provide each student with the tools to safely play in the water while also providing an enjoyable experience.

I am a mom to two adults, a 25-year-old daughter and an 18-year-old son with 22q Deletion Syndrome and ASD. I am also a lifelong swimmer who swam competitively as a child. I have been teaching swim lessons since March 2024, but I have worked with children for most of my adult life. I was a nanny in my early 20s. I have coached youth volleyball since 2003. I taught toddler music lessons a few years ago as well. What I love about teaching swimming, though, is that lightbulb moment when breath, buoyancy, and propulsion all come together and a child realizes they can swim. I also love to challenge older swimmers to push their limits safely to achieve more in the pool, whether it be learning to dive or swim butterfly.
