I’m originally from St. Paul, MN where I got my first lifeguard job the biggest municipal water park in the Midwest (Cascade Bay). Averaging over 3,000 people daily this sparked my interest for continuing lifeguarding after the summer season ended. In the past I have taught swim lessons at country clubs and school districts, along with guarding at other smaller pools. My intention is to bring the a positive atmosphere and create a safe, but fun swimming environment for everyone. A fun fact about me is that I enjoy cooking and going for bike rides!

Hi my name is Nick and I am a Florida native with a great Jamaican heritage. The reason that I first got into lifeguarding was because I got a summer job at a sleep away summer camp. I remember being pretty nervous my first couple times guarding. However, from that experience my confidence grew and after 4 years of that, I have learned so much about myself and my leadership ability. I acquired my lifeguard trainer certification and have put it to good use since.

The reason I love event lifeguarding is because on top of keeping everyone safe, I love being a part of the excitement going on around me.

I have lifeguarded many BSA volunteer events and also worked at Harbour Island Athletic Club during the 2019 summer. My goal when lifeguarding is to provide an environment for all patrons to enjoy themselves, while still remaining safe. What I enjoy most about guarding events is being able to meet new people and helping them to have a safer and more enjoyable event.

I can’t wait to get back into the swing of things and do what I love again.
