I would love to be a collegiate swimmer. While I do love taper and the results at the end of the season, I have the drive and determination to put in the effort required throughout the season to see those time drops. I hope to be a strong, contributing member of my chosen team and build relationships with peers who have the same passion and desire to do well both in the classroom and pool! Both my aunt and my mother competed in Division I swimming programs and I have enjoyed hearing about their experiences. Most of all, I see how much they appreciate all of the opportunities they were afforded as college athletes and how it molded them in to who they are as adults.
