I swam summers on a recreational swim team in Kansas City, Missouri and competitively in high school. I was a swim lesson instructor and swim coach for YMCA's in Missouri, Illinois, and Massachusetts. I coached swim club and team as the Youth Swim Coordinator for The Clubs at River City in Peoria, IL. My favorite part of coaching is helping young swimmers develop quality stroke technique, build endurance and find a love for swimming.

I’ve been swimming for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Littleton, where I swam competitively with Aces Swim Club and at Columbine High School. After graduation, I continued my swimming career at William Jewell College while earning my Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration. On the team, I specialized in distance freestyle and individual medley events.
Swimming has always been a huge part of my life, and I’m passionate about sharing that love for swimming with others. As a coach, my goal is to help swimmers of all ages and skill levels gain confidence, improve their technique, and discover the same joy for swimming that has shaped my own life.

Hi! I'm Evelyn and I attend Thunder Ridge High School. I currently swim on the TR swim team. I have been on the Seahawks swim team since I was 8 years old. My favorite event is the 100 free, but a close second is the 50 fly. I want to inspire a love of swimming in everyone, regardless of age or background. Along with being a swimmer, I also play club and high school soccer. Other facts about me are that I have played the flute for five years and the piccolo for almost a year. I also love reading and writing in my free time.
Joel was a swimmer and coach in North Carolina before recently moving to Colorado. When he isn’t coaching Seahawks, you can find Joel teaching Elementary PE. Joel’s passion for teaching quality stroke technique, having fun with the swimmers, and watching swimmers improve is evident when you see him on deck or in the pool.
Hi I'm Savannah. I began swimming when I was 8 and started swimming with a club team my sophomore year of high school. My favorite events to swim are 100 back and 200 IM. I have been coaching 4 years. Swimming has added so much happiness to my life and I want to share that with my swimmers.
I'm Linden. I've been swimming competitively for 10 years. Right now, I swim for HRA and am on the varsity team at Highlands Ranch High School. Butterfly is my favorite—I'm always up for a challenge! I started swimming with Seahawks, learning about teamwork and discipline, and having fun in the pool. I'm diving into coaching because swimming has brought me so much joy, and I want to share that with others. For me, it's not just about training hard, but also about enjoying every step of the process!
I have spent most of my life in Highlands Ranch, but I was born in California and have lived in Germany as well. I started swimming when I was six. I went through the whole HRCA swim program, from Learn to Swim to Elites, and swam Seahawks in the summer. I was also on the Mountain Vista girls’ swim and dive team. My favorite stroke is freestyle, and my favorite event was always the 50 free. I recently graduated from the University of Hawai’i at Manoa in the spring of 2022. My favorite thing about coaching is having fun with the swimmers!
Jeff grew up in Long Beach, CA and spent most of his childhood shooting hoops, surfing, and doing tricks on his BMX bike. Although an active kid, Jeff fell into some sedentary habits for a few decades as an adult working in IT. To counteract some of these bad habits, Jeff discovered a love of swimming and doing triathlons in 2014! One of the constants in Jeff’s life over the past eight years has been HRCA’s Ranch H2O masters swim program on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 6:30 a.m. Jeff is an accomplished open water swimmer and triathlete, finishing Horsetooth 10k races in 2019 and 2021, and finishing Ironman Arizona in 2018 and Ironman Wisconsin in 2022. His two favorite places to swim are the gravel pond at Chatfield Reservoir and Wellington Lake. Jeff’s favorite stroke is freestyle – in the open water! His favorite thing about coaching is seeing students integrate healthy long-term exercise and mental habits into their lives.
Hello! From a young age, I have always enjoyed being in the water. My competitive swimming journey began when I started high school in Sacramento, CA. When moving here to Colorado, I kept up with my passion for swimming by continuing to swim for fitness, incorporating the same sets and pieces that I had when I was in high school. I get in the water at least four times a week to work out. I love to share my passion for swimming by coaching and teaching. I have taught swim team at South Suburban Parks and Recreation, and swim lessons for Camp Mowglis. Something that I enjoy is fostering others to reach their full potential in swimming, creating a lifelong bond with the sport.
Hey I’m Georgia. I have been swimming competitively for about eight years and my favorite stroke is freestyle. I want to be a coach because of the positive impact my past coaches had on making me who I am today. Some other things about me are that I am going on 9 years of playing the violin and I love reading. When I’m not working, I’m playing tennis. My favorite movie is Fight Club, and I live for a good dance party!
I started swimming competitively in 2018 as a freshman in high school. I started coaching in 2019 have loved doing it. I also am a high school swim official. Currently, I go to MSU Denver and study cybersecurity.
I started swimming and competing for Arizona Country Club in 1958; a long time ago! At age 12, I started swimming for Desert Rats and Phoenix Country Club. I swam for Xavier in high school, and graduated from Arizona State University in 1975. I joined Colorado Masters at South Suburban in the ‘90s and started teaching swim lessons for HRCA in May of 2002. I have been coaching Highlands Ranch Seahawks since 2005 and have loved and enjoyed it ever since. So many fantastic memories of swimmers who have learned to swim and compete in the pool. My favorite stroke has always been freestyle, and I’ve competed in the all the sprint events my whole life. I look forward to another summer coaching and giving these swimmers as many skills as they can use to become the best they can be!-Fun facts: Jewelry designer, trail hiking, biking, love dogs and horses, LOVE being a grandmother, and a mother to 2 fantastic people…Danny and Faryl.
I was born and raised right here in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. I swam competitively during the summers until middle school (Go Blue Fins!). In high school, I began teaching swim lessons—a passion I continued through college, where I earned my degree in Computer Science from Western Colorado University. My favorite stroke is breaststroke (even though I’m faster at freestyle!). In my free time, I enjoy drawing and playing D&D.
