I am from a military family; I’ve been swimming for the last 8 years in Europe and the United States. My parents have instilled in me a culture of service and I continue to give service as part of my NJROTC unit. I am in the Virginia Governor’s STEM program and continue to enroll in AP and Honors classes. I love to swim, I love to train, and I love to compete. During my Freshman year I set a goal to swim in college. Since then I have committed to listening and learning from my coaches, and am doing everything in my power to reach my goal.
