Spent my first year of college at The University of Findlay majoring in Early Childhood Education. I also swam on the swim team until an injury stopped me from competing at the college level. I am continuing my schooling at Cuyahoga Community College and will finish at Cleveland State University. I plan to coach swimming when I graduate hopefully at the school system I will be hired at.
