My name is Jessica Bayer, and I was born in St. Petersburg, Russia. I was adopted as an infant and currently live in SE Michigan (Rochester Hills). I definitely feel like I would bring some international diversity to the team. I've been swimming since I was seven years old. I have been swimming for my club team, OLY Swimming, since I was nine. I'm extremely competitive, but I also love seeing my teammates succeed. I have good relationships with my coaches, teammates, and parents. I achieved my sectional level cut in March, (100 Y Backstroke), and my next goal is to get my Junior National cut before I graduate next year - I'm not afraid to work hard!
OLY is like a family for me, everyone is close. I'm looking for a team that has the same sort of culture. I will bring a lot of value and camaraderie to any team I join. Thank you for your consideration.
