Jamie LOVES to swim! No really... like more than anything. But there is an inspiring story about why.
At 2 years old, her parents found her floating in the bottom of a pool. After quick thinking, and no small miracle, she was resuscitated. But she was now terrified of the water. Her wise parents insisted that she overcome her fear getting her in lessons until she overcame that fear. WIth much struggle, she did!
At only 6 years old, she began to swim competitively! Then at 11 she began swimming full time training with the highschool, and has never looked back.
She swam in high school, winning 5 state championships, and then went on to swim at BYU (2000-2004) qualifying for the NCAA.
Since leaving college, she's continued using her athletic gifts mastering biking and running to become a top competitor in triathlons--half iron man is her favorite distance if that doesn't tell you how tuff she is.
Now she loves to help children overcome their fears, as she's overcome hers!
