Richelle Williams
After swimming competitively , playing club water polo in college, teaching swim lessons, coaching swim team, and lifeguarding from the youngest age allowed, it was a natural fit for me to work in aquatics professionally. Through my time as a higher education profession I realized the need for more community training opportunities for American Red Cross courses.
I am bringing 19 years of aquatics experience from a variety of pools and clients. Aquatic Instruction dba CPR Certify Pro, was born in 2019 to serve the community and create more opportunities for a safer, more equitable aquatics community.
Swimming has always been such a source of joy for me and a pillar of my identity. I want to bring others the chance to enjoy swimming and aquatics. I am working to bring aquatics education in all its forms to as many people as possible.
