Hi! My name is Joseph, and Im a third-year Biochemistry student at Cal Poly Pomona. I swam competitively for a club and my high school for a little over 5 years at a Junior Olympic and CIF level. I grew up with 3 siblings and babysat at my local church, so being patient and working with children are built into me. I believe in, first and foremost, making sure the water is not something to be scared of so long as you can swim, which is what Im here to teach!
