Bio:

mmm, lets see... I spent most of my childhood in the pool and competed until I was about 20. My first coaching experience was in developing grassroots swimmers, then onto club, national and international level swimmers in the United Kingdom. I've been coaching in the US for 5 years now. I love the change of pace that I chose - going from the 'war zone' of competitive age group swimming in the UK to Y swimming in the USA :)

Interests:

Swimming, my kids, photography, Audi S4's
