Assistant Head Coach
I joined Chalfont Otters in September 2017 and since then I have
been working regularly with the OB, SD and JD squads. I have been a
Level 2 Swimming Teacher for 9 years and my experience as a teacher
gives me the confidence and knowledge to improve swimmers in the
developmental stage of learning. I wanted to get back into the
competitive world of swimming after being out of the sport for 6
years.
I swam at county, regional, national and international level.
My greatest personal achievements would have to be winning a silver
and bronze medal for England in Thessaloniki, Greece in 2009 in the
100m and 200m Backstroke. I won 5 national medals and competed in
the Olympic Trials in 2008, where I narrowly missed GB Junior Team
selection on the 200m Backstroke by 0.06 sec. I have swum
internationally in countries such as Holland, Switzerland, Germany,
Spain and Greece.
My experience as a swimmer has shaped my future career; I now have
a Bachelor of Science in Sport Sciences, Master of
Science in Sport Psychology and I am currently working
towards a PhD in Sport Psychology.
I look forward to gaining my coaching qualifications and becoming more involved with the club as a whole.

I first started coaching and leading sports when I was at school. I won various sports coaching awards, was picked to lead the youth team at a Youth Sports Trust Conference, elected Sports Ambassador to represent my School and in swimming was selected to go to a Young Coaches Talent Camp run by the Youth Sports Trust.
I am now a full time secondary school teacher in the day however I still love coaching Otters in my spare time and am lucky enough to be the Lead Coach for Otters Squad and coach some of our club squads too. I also organise the swimming team at the school I work at. Whilst I want every swimmer to succeed and do their absolute best, my main goal is that every swimmer who joins Otters loves to swim and enjoys it. I try my best to make sessions creative and fun for all whilst not forgetting that we want to be striving towards getting PBs which takes hard work!
My favourite quote (which one of my swimming coaches said to me) is to think: ‘I SHALL, I WILL , I CAN’ and that helps me to keep going and try my best. If your reading this because you are thinking of joining the club as a swimmer, coach, poolside helper or even doing your DofE award - do it - give it a go!!
Qualifications:
