My journey into swimming began at age four. After many years of swimming with the Greater Hollywood YMCA swim team, I joined my high school swim team, qualified to compete at the state level, became the team captain and additionally have experience playing water polo. I am currently enrolled in a dual Bachelor’s/ Master’s program at NSU, majoring in Health and Wellness and Public Health. As your swim coach, I will strive to offer techniques to foster individual and team athletic development and help to achieve competitive success and personal growth for each swimmer.
