Nicole N.

Swimming has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. My parents have called me a “fish” since I was born, and it’s a nickname that has stuck, reflecting how naturally at home I feel in the water. I was a competitive swimmer for 10 years. My experience as a swimmer has shaped not only my technical knowledge of the sport but also my passion for helping others feel confident and comfortable in the water. Leading me to coach for my club for 5 years, mostly working with younger kids.

I am finishing up my Psychology degree, and working towards my Bachelors of Education, with the goal of combining my background in psychology with teaching to better support and connect with children. I value creating a positive, encouraging environment where swimmers feel safe, capable, and motivated to grow!

I am always outside, I love hiking, biking, camping, skiing, and of course, jumping in any body of water I can find. At the end of the day, I just love being in the water, and I’m excited to help others feel just as comfortable in it as I do. All while continuing to grow as both an educator and coach while making a positive impact on every swimmer I work with.
