About Liv
Hi! I'm Olivia! I have been swimming competitively for over twelve years, and I am an experienced lifeguard and swim instructor. I love swimming, and my teaching style is warm and enthusiastic. I am a current member of the Carleton Ravens Swim Team and a Head Lifeguard for the City of Ottawa. I am a certified Swim and First Aid instructor, National Lifeguard, Examiner for lifesaving and first aid courses. I am also certified in Standard First Aid and CPR-C along with Airway Management. ​When I'm not at the pool I can be found hanging out with my three younger siblings or studying for my biology degree at Carleton. Go Ravens!
