It's no surprise, coming from a family of breaststrokers, that Colin would become one himself. Having spent the entirety of his life around water, Colin learned at a young age what it means to be a team-player, the importance of good sportsmanship, and the need to set goals and strive to achieve them. A member of both the Palisades High School Pumas and Planters Walk Waves swim teams, Colin pushes to best himself each and every time he gets into the water. Colin follows his coach's mantra "Chase Times, Not People", remembering the importance of always striving for your best and focusing on being better today than you were yesterday. 

And why waste time on only one sport? Colin is an avid skier as well as golfer on the Palisades Golf team.

As if he isn't busy enough, Colin is a recent Eagle Scout, crediting his Scouting journey for helping to shape the young man he is today. Continuing to be an active member of his Troop, he is "paying it forward", serving as Den Chief and Troop Guide to mentor the younger boys in the Troop and teach them the valuable life skills that he learned. When Colin does find bit of downtime, you'd better look for him in the kitchen. As an amateur chef, Colin has delighted countless friends & family with his delectable entrees, mouthwatering desserts and artistic plating. Looking towards the future, Colin is planning a career in finance and economics, with the goal of working on global economics. Already getting a jump start on college as a student at Harper Middle College is no surprise, given his drive for success.
