Mountain Park Swim Team

Hello Sharks family!

I am super excited to see you all this year again.  I’ve swum with the Mountain Park Sharks ever since I was 7 years old. My favorite swimming memory was winning the 4x50 medley relay at High School State alongside Dylan Yin and fellow MPST swimmer, Joshua Kim, both of them coached with me in the past two years at MPST.

I am a two-time team captain, State Champion, and a Gwinnett County Record holder. I’ve taught swimming lessons and coached stroke clinics at Gwinnett Aquatics for around 2 years (I also swim there year-round). Many of my greatest experiences have come from the pool, which is why I am thrilled to come back to where it all started as a Mountain Park Shark.

Out of the water, I graduated from Parkview High School as valedictorian. I just finished my second year of college at Washington University in St. Louis as a member of their swim team, where I hope to study Economics and Strategy. I like to do handstands and play other sports in my free time. It was a joy coaching this team in the last 2 years, which is why I'm pumped to give it another go. See you soon!

Hello Sharks! I hope everyone's having a great summer so far. I'm Alex and I'll be one of your coaches this season. This is my third year coaching this team. I have a long history with the sport, beginning from elementary school years at Swim Atlanta, Gwinnett Aquatics swim team through middle school, and high school swim team at Parkview High School. I'm quite familiar with the Sharks team as well, having been a member of the team myself since the early 2010s and a coach in recent years.

Outside of swimming I am a student at the Berklee College of Music and a part time gym hobbyist.

I'm elated to join everyone again on this amazing team with amazing swimmers, parents, volunteers, coaches, and many more that make this possible. This season we will continue to work together and create an amazing network that fosters and supports the growth in our swimmers' abilities in the pool, but also their capabilities as leaders and teammates.

I've enjoyed coaching the last two years and I can't wait to welcome returning and new swimmers alike. Go Sharks!

Hey Sharks!

I am super excited to coach new and returning swimmers this year. I have been on this team for 12 years and coached for two. My favorite swim memories include winning my high school state championships with my team and placing top 10 in the state in multiple events. I've been captain of Parkview High School's swim team for two years and have been teaching private lessons for three years. My whole life has revolved around swimming since I turned six years old.

Many of my greatest memories, friendships, and experiences have come from being a part of a swim team, and I hope to make the Sharks family a place that the kids will love and enjoy for years.

I am still a senior at Parkview High School but I plan to attend Georgia Tech for college this summer. In my free time, I love playing sports, spending time outside, and practicing calisthenics (like Andy, but I'm better at it). I love teaching kids how to swim, and I'm thrilled to see you guys this season!

Hi guys, I’m Katie! I’m a rising senior at Brookwood High School and am also on my school’s swim team. I have been swimming for about ten years now, and this will be my third year with MPST.

Outside of the water, I enjoy running with my dog, biking, writing, and reading as much as I can! Super excited for this upcoming season. Go Sharks!

Hey guys, I'm Chris. I'm so excited to coach this summer! This is my first year coaching for the Sharks but I have helped manage other swim teams before. I am currently a senior in highschool, and I have been swimming for four years on the Berkmar High School swim team. My favorite event is 50 freestyle, but I also like to swim backstroke. Outside of swimming, I am a manager at Chickfil-A and a president in multiple school clubs. Can't wait to see everyone this summer!

Hello, my name is Sean Lin. I'm a senior at Parkview High School and I have been swimming with this team for 14 years. I've swam competitively for 7 years now and I'm very excited to work with these young swimmers.

Hi! I'm David and I have been swimming for 12 years. I've been a private lessons instructor for a couple of years now, but this will be my first time coaching for the Sharks. I'll be attending UGA in the fall for college. My favorite stroke is breaststroke!

Hey MPST Family!

My name is Anthony Pham and I will be an assistant coach for the Mountain Park Sharks this summer. I have been a shark for almost 10 years now! My older brother (Timothy), who is a freshman at Augusta University, and my younger sister Bethany are both apart of the MPST family! I am a rising junior at George Walton Academy and swim with my club team, SwimAtlanta. I have been around swimming since I was 4 and I’m excited to be on the other side of the pool deck this summer!
