I've always been a bit of a free spirit, even as a kid. I grew up near the ocean and spent most of my childhood playing in the waves or exploring the tide pools. There's something about being surrounded by water that just feels like home to me.
As I got older, I started competing in local swim meets, which is how I developed such strong shoulders and back. But it wasn't until after high school that I really fell in love with swimming. I'd always been a bit of an introvert, but being out on the water made me feel like I could finally be myself without any judgment.
I'm at a point now where I'm starting to figure out who I am outside of swimming. It's scary, but also kind of liberating. I've started taking photos with friends and experimenting with different looks - it's been really fun exploring my identity through photography.
