Meet the Head Coach
Years Coaching:
This is my first year coaching! I swam competitively for Indian Trail High School for four years after spending four years in club swimming.
Favorite Stroke/Event:
Backstroke is where it’s at! My favorite events were the 100-yard IM and the 500-yard freestyle. I definitely prefer distance over sprinting.
Why I Coach:
Every swimmer has their own lane and their own journey. My job is to help them become the best version of themselves.
My Coaching Philosophy:
All athletes deserve to feel challenged, supported, and part of the team.
Advice for New Swimmers:
Don’t worry about being the fastest. Show up, work hard, have fun, and the rest will come.
My Favorite Quote
“Just keep swimming…”
Fun Fact:
One of the coolest places I’ve ever swum is Coki Beach in St. Thomas, where I got to swim alongside colorful tropical fish.
