Summary

I'm a 16-year-old Grade 10 student in Surrey. People know me for my outgoing personality and ability to learn fast. I would love to work as a swim coach, which I love because it lets me mentor others. Plus, I'm a competitive swimmer myself, I would love to bring my enthusiasm and knowledge to the club and to the swimmers!

I started competitive swimming at eight-year-old when i lived in China. In my first provincials swim meet representing Dalian, China, I won three medals: gold in u10 50m butterfly (31.57s) LCM and two silvers in mixed relays. After moving to Canada in 2019, I joined the Canadian Dolphins Swim Club and won two silver medals in the 2019 Swim BC Summer Provincials. Relocating to Surrey in 2020, I joined the Surrey Knights from 2020 till 2022 and later joined the Surrey Sea Lions in 2023.
