About

The Full Story

At a very young age, I realized that swimming was the sport for me. I have been swimming by myself since the age of 3 and became a competitive swimmer at the age of 7. This love for the sport lead to my success at becoming a collegiate athlete for UNF. Along the journey of my successes in the pool, I quickly learned that I also had a passion and a gift and teaching children how to swim and perfect their form as well. This passion has been deep rooted in me for nearly 7 years. Whether you’re a beginner or an expert looking to perfect your form, I’m here to help my students feel confident in the water. Things fill up pretty quickly, so feel free to browse my services and book a class today!
