Alexis Palmer '24 Recruiting Profile

I am a Junior attending Westosha Central High School. I'm the oldest of 4 girls and have been swimming competitively since age 7. I have had a few foot injuries that have kept me out of the water for part of 2020 and early 2021.  I've spent my time rehabbing and working hard to get back in the water.  Since mid-2021 I've been able swim competitively and I'm seeing my times begin to drop from prior to the injury.  It's been a difficult journey that has taken a lot of perseverance, but I really enjoy swimming and look forward to continued improvement. 

In addition to swimming I have many hobbies including painting, drawing, plants, building things, and reading. As far as academic interests go, I find environmental engineering very interesting, along with interior design, psychology, and athletic training to be interesting fields of study.
