I fell in love with the water through synchronized swimming in elementary school and never looked back! Growing up in Northern California, I swam anywhere I couldfrom indoor pools to the chilly American River at Ponderosa Bridge, the Confluence, and Sunrise Bridge. My family loved whitewater rafting, so water safety was always front and center for me from a young age. I bring that same mindset into every lesson I teach: helping children feel confident, safe, and strong in the water. Ive taught swim lessons year-round at an indoor/outdoor swim school, working with all levels, and I especially love helping beginners gain trust in themselves. I have a background as a classroom teacher, now specializing in working with students with dyslexia.
