FAVORITE QUOTES
“Effort makes you. You will regret someday if you don’t do your best now. Don’t think it’s too late but keep working on it. It may take time, but there’s nothing that gets worse due to practising. So practise. You may get depressed, but its evidence that you are doing good.”
— Jeon Jungkook
“Maybe I made a mistake yesterday, but yesterday’s me is still me. I am who I am today, with all my faults. Tomorrow I might be a tiny bit wiser, and that’s me, too. These faults and mistakes are what I am, making up the brightest stars in the constellation of my life. I have come to love myself for who I was, who I am, and who I hope to become.”
— Kim Namjoon
"The path that leads to what we truly desire is long and difficult, but only by following that path do we achieve our goal."
— Leonardo (TMNT)
Hi! I'm Hannah!
I love Disney, traveling, anime, music, cooking, and video games! My all time favorite place I've been to is definitely when I took a cruise to Mexico back in 2022. My favorite Disney movie is The Princess and the Frog, my favorite anime is Attack on Titan, and I love K-Pop. I really wanna travel to Japan, Korea, and Paris one day. I'm also a huge Nintendo fan!
I've been a coach on and off since I was 15. I've always loved working with children and the pool so I thought why not be a swim coach. I taught students throughout high school and it has been one of many joys in my life.
I come from a big family where I was the youngest for a while. Now I'm not and I have little cousins all 12 and under. One of the worst things I can think of is them having a pool incident especially since majority of their parents cannot swim or they live near large bodies of water. I openly volunteered whenever I saw them to help them swim. Even though most of them were hesitant, they ended up coming around and now they're very comfortable in the water.
Once I was old enough I became a coach and taught more kids than I could imagine. Every day I coached I thought about how much of a difference I have made for the kids and their families. Seeing everyone's smiles and progressions made me so happy. It reassured me that I was doing something right.
