We have a big extended family, including my sisters and their children and grandchildren, that I love spending time with. And I love to swim! As a Florida native I've been swimming my entire life. Over the course of my life I've worked many different jobs and made tons of friends along the way. I know people from all over the world! Now that I am a bit older and my own children are adults I try to focus more on spending quality time with my loved ones and finding ways to give back to my community.

Coach Zach
A message to my swimmers
Hey little dudes and dudettes! I’m Coach Z!
I’m stoked to hop in the pool with you and make some waves. We’ll splash, laugh, and learn gnarly swim skills together. Before you know it, you’ll be gliding through the water like pros!
My Hobbies
When I’m not cruising in the pool, I’m hanging with my wife, my two awesome daughters, and our dog, Happy Boy. I love coaching kids’ sports (soccer and flag football), staying active outdoors, and running my own small business.
Bio
I grew up in Iowa, but in 2009 I traded cornfields for palm trees because I needed the water all year long, not just in the summer months! Swimming has always been my jam. Whether at the pool or the beach, that’s where my smile is the biggest. Coaching kids and being a dad work together like the ultimate tag-team: one makes me better at the other. At Suzie’s Swim, I’m here to keep it safe, keep it fun, and help every swimmer ride the wave of confidence. Cowabunga!
Coach Lindsey
A message to my swimmers
Hello! My name is Lindsey, and I am so honored and excited to be part of your swimming journey. Our time together will move at your pace, with the goal of keeping you confident, happy, and having fun. We’ll tackle challenges as a team with you leading the way, and we will always, always, play!
My Hobbies
I have a dog named Apollo who is almost as big as me, and he is truly my world. Outside of the pool, I love baking, cooking, playing soccer, and of course spending time in the water. I also enjoy watching old Disney movies, and Lilo and Stitch is one of my favorites.
Bio
I grew up in South Florida, where the ocean has always been my second home. That love of the water has shaped my experiences as a surf instructor, swim instructor, and lifeguard. I have had the joy of working with children for many years in schools, camps, and volunteer settings. Currently, I am pursuing my Master’s in Social Work and love bringing those skills into my work with little ones.
I can’t wait to build a connection with your swimmer and be a part of their journey in the water!
Coach Tatiana

Hey everyone! I am so excited to be a part of your swim journeys. We are going to learn lots of new things while having fun and being ourselves! Can’t wait to get to know everyone!
My Hobbies
I’ve always been a Daddy’s girl since I was little so I grew up playing video games and watching anime! I also crochet and make fun jewelry. I used to do Capoeira for 8 years so I think martial arts are so fun! I’m a big foodie as well, so I love to try all kinds of things. I’m very open to different ideas and people!
Bio
I’m currently finishing up high school at Saint John Paul II Academy. My grandma used to work at a pre-k so I often went there to help out with all the kids. Now that she’s retired, I sometimes help out at my aunts work; she works at an Alzheimer’s facility, so I go there and help with the patients. A lot of the time, the patients act like children just bigger ;) I love helping people and teaching them new things so I’m excited to help anyone who wants to learn, and thank you parents for entrusting me with your kid’s swim journeys!
