My name is Ashley Blommers. I started swimming when I was very
little, I loved being around the water. I started swim team in 1st
grade and swam competitively untill highschool. My favorite stroke
to swim is back stroke! I have been an active coach since I was 15
years old, started with volunteering after school untill I was
coaching everyday, every practice, and meets. I love coaching kids
the correct strokes and water safety.
I gradutated in ’21 from Pella High School. From there I went
to DMACC to obtain Interior Design Certificate. Once I graduated I
studied and passed the Iowa Real Estate Exam. I am now an active
Real Estate Agent in Pella at Realty One Group Impact and am on the
Elder Real Estate Team. My passion for finding families the home
they love, cherish and feel safe in, is what I love most! If you or
anyone you know is looking to buy and sell, I would love to help
our swim families! I also, for the past 5 summers, I do 1 on 1 swim
lessons. This summer I took on 50 individual swimmers. My passion
for getting kids to learn swimming and feel confident in the water
is very strong.
In my free time, outside of work, I love to spend time at the gym
working out and lifting weights. I also love making time to hang
out with family and friends! Most My name is Ashley Blommers. I
