What is your most memorable swimming/diving moment? Why?
My most memorable moment is breaking the Section record and getting the All American time for our 400 Free Relay. It was the last relay of the meet and my last swim for my high school ever. It was so great to finish off my high school swimming experience with a record for the meet!

What do you see yourself doing in 10 years? I see myself as a sports broadcaster, or something under the field of Public Relations.

What piece of coaching and/or personal advice has stuck with you over the years?
One of my old coaches used to tell me to focus on swimming for myself and to always have goals. He also would always say that I swim faster when I'm happy, and he was right. Every time I get nervous at a meet, I remind myself of his advice and remember that having fun is the best way for me to be successful in my competitions. Quick Hits
