I’ve been a Teach2Swim Certified Instructor for 6 years. In the past 6 years, I have taught over 600 kiddos to be pool safe! I truly love my job and the impact I can make on so many families in our community.
One of my favorite emails I have received time and time again is “My toddler fell in the pool and was able to get themselves to the side and pull themselves out”. It’s situations like these that make all the hard work, myself and the students, worth it!
All three of my boys went through the Teach2Swim program, and I was beyond impressed. Before this program, I searched countless options of swim lessons through the city, YMCA, and other expensive swim schools. None of them offered personal attention or gave them the confidence to overcome the fear of going under water. Within the first year of starting this swim program, not only was my oldest swimming, but so were my one-year-old twins!
After going through the Teach2Swim program with my own kids, I realized this is an amazing program and something I wanted to be a part of. I am so blessed to be an instructor and to continue to help so many kids in our community.

As an Arizona native I feel it’s very important to teach kids to swim at an early age and get them comfortable around the water. Learning how to swim before I could walk has made a huge impact on me. I’ve always loved to swim and be in the water. Both of my kids have thrived with the Teach2Swim program! My daughter went from crying when she got her face wet to diving in the pool. My son has no fear of the water so teaching him to respect the water and know how to get out safely was very important. After seeing the impact this program has had on my own kids and so many other kids I know I wanted to join the program and be part of the solution! I am so excited to be on this journey as a Teach2Swim instructor and get your children pool safe.

As a mother of 3, and lover of all things water it has always been a priority of mine to have my kids pool safe. After my youngest two girls learned the Teach2Swim method, and both were swimming by the end (the youngest only 18-months-old) I knew I had to be a part of the Teach2Swim team!
I grew up in Michigan, where summer time meant lake time! As a mother there is no greater fear than that of your child drowning, so I knew my kids had to be confident in the water from a very young age. My husband and beautiful daughters lived in Arizona for 10 years, new opportunities took us to Florida and we look forward to raising our two youngest girls here in the land of sunshine!
I’ve always had a passion for teaching kids, so I’m beyond excited to have an impact on our community and get kids ready for a safe summer!
