CAN Fund Testimonial:
I was so overwhelmed and grateful when I found out that I was a CAN Fund recipient. This funding will help me in so many ways (like not having to worry so much about how I’m going to pay for suits, training camps and the right food) to reach my goal of making my second Olympic team in 2012.
Best Result:
9th overall in the world for the 2009 season in the 400 IM
