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!

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.
