Giada learned to swim at three-years-old, splitting her lesson time between the YMCA and New Jersey’s Silton Swim School, where she went on to race competitively for nearly a decade. Now a rising senior at Pace University pursuing a BFA in Acting, Giada blends her performance background with years of experience teaching young children in the performing arts. For Giada, nothing beats the magic of forming a true connection with her students and watching them fall in love with the sport right before her eyes. When she isn’t in the pool sharing that joy, you can find her catching a Broadway show or practicing competitive baton twirling, a hobby she mastered over seven years.
