5 FUN FACTS ABOUT ME
I'm always singing! Especially if you say lyrics of a song out loud I will continue it, though it may not sound great. 😂
I LOVE animals, especially dogs. I've volunteered at shelters before and would love to find a spot here.
I was born and raised in North Carolina, though the rest of my family was born and lived in Ohio. I've come back to my roots!
I used to be a picky eater, but now I've grown out of it and have turned into a bit of a foodie. I would love recommendations nearby!
I went to Italy last summer to study abroad! I had the best time EVER and would love to live there someday
FAVORITE QUOTES
Hey y'all! My name is Emma and I just moved to Ohio from NC. Most of my careers in my life have been working with children in some form, usually babysitting or after school care. I also grew up with a pool in my backyard, so my summers were spent playing mermaids, marco polo, or games off of the diving board. I worked at Aquatots Swim School for the past 2 years in NC while I was finishing up my degree at NC State (go Pack!) Liquid Lifestyles has been a nice change of pace with classes and curriculum.
Throughout my coaching experience, I have worked to help different students to succeed in ways that are helpful to them. Every swimmer is different, so I make sure to find what works best for that individual swimmer, and celebrate each milestone big or small!
Other than swimming, I love to listen to music, try new food, the color pink, puzzles, and keeping my brain stimulated. Now that I'm in a new place I'll need some recommendations of food to eat and places to see!
