What classes or sports do you coach?
Swimming
What made you want to become a coach?
I wanted to become a swim coach because of how influential my own swim coaches were when I was growing up. I always loved being at the pool - not only because I loved swimming, but because of the positive environment my coaches created for me. I hope I can create that same experience for other kids!
What’s your favourite thing about being a coach?
My favourite thing about being a coach is watching kids get better at something they once doubted themselves in. Seeing their faces light up when they achieve something they never thought they could is the best part!
Tell us one fun fact about yourself!
I love drawing and painting! I’ve always loved art and have done it since I was young. I find it really relaxing.
