Monmouth County, NJ

Elite-level technique and personalized instruction for young beginners to masters athletes.

I provide one-on-one swim instruction in Monmouth County, NJ, working with swimmers from 18 months to adults. Every lesson is tailored to your goals, whether that's water safety, summer swim team, or competitive excellence. From YMCA National Champion to Princeton Division I swimmer and 2016 Olympic Trials qualifier, I bring over 20 years of competitive experience to every lesson.

My approach is built on three core principles:

Technical precision from the start

Drawing from my experience training and competing at the national level, I teach the same techniques I've used, breaking them down into fundamental components through specialized drills and stroke progressions. Every lesson is tailored to each swimmer's age, ability, and goals. Whether a swimmer is just learning to be comfortable in the water or refining their competitive stroke, I focus on building proper technique from the foundation up.

Individualized attention

Every swimmer has unique goals, strengths, challenges, and learning styles. Each lesson is thoughtfully designed around how that individual learns best, tailoring not just the pace but how skills are framed and explained to maximize understanding, motivation, and enjoyment. The result is faster progress and better retention.

Building a love for the water

My instruction is designed to create positive, enjoyable experiences that build authentic connection to swimming. Swimming isn't just a skill: when technique and enjoyment reinforce each other, it becomes a practice that enhances life beyond the pool. Young swimmers build lasting confidence through fun and enthusiasm, while experienced swimmers find sustainable motivation through flow, clarity, and deeper physical connection.
