OBJECTIVE To build a solid Sports Management business,

Swimming teams.
QUALIFICATIONS
I know what it takes to
build a winning and successful organization! The American business world is a
highly competitive environment. During my life I have learned a great deal
about competition and how to achieve success in such an environment. As an
international swimmer I competed and won national and world championships. I
had the opportunity to compete in the Pan American Games, as well as swim in the
World Championships as a synchronized swimmer for Colombia at the 1992 Barcelona
Games. In addition, I am the only woman in the world to win national
championships in three different categories, swimming, diving, and synchronized
swimming. After my swimming career I successfully operated a business, Dynet
International which developed and distributed educational materials for
professional language instruction.
