My goal is to attend college and obtain my bachelors degree. I would be honored to have the opportunity to continue swimming through college. I have been a student council officer all four years of high school and I also brought the leadership skills I learned in student council to the swim team serving as team captain of my high school swim team both junior and senior year. I enjoy multiple swimming events and strokes I have a hard time identifying one event as my primary event as I truly enjoy all events. I credit this to the years I have spent training with my club team. My first/age group competitive coach was Olympian Melissa Belote Ripley who taught me the importance of being hard working, dedicated and well rounded both in and out of the pool.
