Hello! Im Ella. Im 18 years old and have been swimming my whole life. I started swim team with Del Amigo when I was in kindergarten until 5th grade. During COVID, I brushed up on my swimming skills, doing laps and practicing at my house, then got my CPR, AED, and Lifeguard certification. I worked over the summer since June 2022 as a lifeguard and swim instructor, teaching all ages how to feel comfortable in the water, going back to the basics or just perfecting certain strokes. I did swim team for my high school and love teaching. Some other random facts to get to know me: I love dogs; I have 3 dogs and basically love all animals. I love to read, any and everything. Lastly, Im dyslexic, so if any of this is spelled wrong, that would be why.
