Coach Jennifer started swimming at the age of five with her summer league swim team and
swimming has been a huge part of her life since then. Throughout age group swimming, she
qualified for many select teams through Katy Aquatics and Gulf Swimming including Nationals,
US Open, Sectionals and Gulf All-Stars. She swam for Katy High School where she was All-
American, Academic All-American, All-State and State Finalist all four years including winning
State in the 100 Breaststroke. She was recruited to swim at Purdue University on a swimming scholarship. At Purdue, Jennifer
qualified for NCAA Championships, was a Big Ten Finalist all four years, Academic All-American
and school record holder in the 200 Breaststroke. She qualified for the 2008 Olympic Trials in
the 100 Breaststroke. She coached many summer league teams in Katy and West Lafayette, IN
during the summers off from school. After graduating from Purdue, she went on to get a
Master’s Degree from Texas A&M where she coached swimming and taught swim lessons while
working with the Texas A&M Athletic Department. Jennifer is married to Blake, who was a well-
decorated swimmer as well, and they have 5 children, Caitlin, Courtney, Camryn, Chloe and
Colson, 3 of whom swim with MARC. She homeschools her kids during the day and loves
coming to the pool to coach in the afternoons.

She loves seeing the swimmers develop good technique and achieve their goals, all while developing great friendships and a love for the
water.
