Biography

What is your most memorable moment in your swimmng or diving career?
In high school at our Zone meet, I was messing around with my club team and lost track of what event it was. Before I knew it, my event was next. Obviously it was the 200 fly because of course I would forget to warm up and get ready for a race like that! So I booked it down the hill to the pool, jumped in the water, and literally warmed up a 50 and got out and stood behind my lane. I was freaked out because I was in the 13 and over group and the grl next to me looked HUGE with piercings and tatoos...maybe not tatoos...but she looked fierce. What I thought was going to be the worst race of my life ended up being the best. I swam my best time, won the race, and didnt feel any knd of fatigue or pain. Though I did get a lecture on being more serious about warming up

What is your favorite food in general or pre-swim meet?
I dig baked potatoes. I used to eat one before all my events. Carbo-loading is definitely the way to go

Why did you choose to attend USD?
I[apos]m fully committed to becoming a beach bum, and college seemed like the best cahnce to do that.

What is your philosophy on life?
'You can[apos]t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you may find, you get what you need!' Those rolling stones knew what they were talking about

What[apos]s on your ipod?
A lot of stuff from Sam Jafari[apos]s computer that I downloaded when we were really bored during a training trip. It[apos]s really random too, like it ranges from music like Rascall Flatts to ODB. Weird I know, but that[apos]s kind of how I roll.

What is your favorite activity to do in or around the city of San Diego?
I love the beach bonfires and farmers markets. You can always find interesting people at either of those!
