I am a Water Safety Instructor Trainer, Lifeguard Instructor, Swim Team Coach, Group Swim Lesson Manager and I have been Aquatics Supervisor at Camp Thoreau. I have worked at Thoreau for almost 14 years.

I have been a lifelong swimmer and learned to swim on a lake in Canada and at my Grandparent’s pool in NY. I also swam competitively on a rec team similar to Thoreau, and on a High School Varsity team.

I enjoy working with swimmers of all ages, giving them the confidence to do their best, try new skills, and improve their technique. I enjoy both group and private instruction. I am also happy to work on your specific goals. Maybe 2023 is the year you will swim a Triathlon, or you would like to learn a new stroke! Come and book a lesson with me for you or your child.

When I am not in the pool, I take classes and enjoy spending time with my family and our new puppy Annie.
