Building on the success of her first season, Katie became the Aquamules’ leading dual meet scorer.

Katie prides herself on the unique ability to pull off any outfit. She gained this momentous confidence as member of her high school band and club synchronized swimming team. Her favorite clothing items you may ask? It would have to be her collection of adult rompers.
