Aloha! I’m Jen ?

Born and raised under the California sun, I’ve been a true “water baby” from the start, splashing into my very first swim lesson at just 6 months old! My love for the ocean has always been part of who I am, and in 2021, I followed that calling (and my heart) to beautiful Hawaiʻi to be closer to family.

I’ve spent years working with children from  volunteering with foster kids to studying early childhood development and even caring for little smiles in pediatric dentistry. Now, I’m so excited to bring all that experience to the Ola Loa ʻohana and help our keiki grow into confident, happy, and safe little swimmers!
