About Coach Billy

I’m an NCAA-committed swimmer and elite competitive athlete, signed with the University of Montevallo Swim Team, where I will continue my collegiate swimming career. I currently sprint with the Southern Louisiana Swim Team and have earned multiple state and regional swim titles through years of competitive swimming.

​

Alongside competing, I work am a lifeguard and am a CPR-certified instructor. I’ve had the opportunity to teach swimmers of all ages. I’ve taught lessons with Love Swimming and the YMCA, and I’ve also assistant-coached the Willow School Middle School swim team. These experiences helped me realize how important it is for swimmers to learn in a personalized and supportive environment.

​

That realization led me to start Blue Fin Swim, where I can work closely with each swimmer, understand their individual goals, and help them develop their skills at their own pace. My approach focuses on building confidence, improving technique, and helping swimmers truly enjoy being in the water.

​

My own swimming journey hasn’t always been easy. I’ve had to overcome obstacles along the way, which has taught me perseverance and patience. Those experiences shape how I teach.

I understand how challenging learning something new can be, and I work to motivate and encourage every swimmer I coach.

 

Above all, my goal is to help swimmers build confidence not just in the pool, but in themselves, while developing a lifelong love for swimming.
