When did you first join AAM?
February 2021. On my first day the coach asked me what my "interval" was for a 100. After explaining to me what "interval" meant I told her 1:10-1:20 and started swimming away wondering why she seemed impressed. Then I realized that was my "interval" for a 50!
What is your occupation/what do you do when you're not on deck?
I'm a psychiatric clinical pharmacist for the Department of Public Health in San Francisco. I've been in this job for nearly 13 years and I love it. Never a boring day! Outside of work, I spend quite a bit of time helping my husband and two kids find what they are looking for by telling them to "look under stuff".
What is your favorite stroke/distance/set?
I like a nice backstroke while the sun is coming up and the ducks are flying.
What is your favorite activity out of the pool?
Sleeping.
Something you didn't know about me...
Something you didn't know about me...I moved to Alameda unexpectedly last year after a pipe broke and our house in Oakland flooded. It took 6 months to repair and we decided we loved Alameda so much we decided to sell our house in Oakland and stay in Alameda!
And...
Thanks to our wonderful coaches my interval for a 100 is now....wait for it...under 2:00!
