To Whom it May Concern, I am a graduated NCAA athlete, with a strong passion in bettering student-athletes’ lives. For over a decade, this sport has added true value in my life. In my years, I've graduated from one position to another, and involvement with your team will be no exception. Graduating from an NCAA Division III Liberal Arts institution has equipped me with strong knowledge in integrating sport and life. In my college career, my commitment to swimming and overall athletics grew. I held many leadership positions not only for my team, but representing the athletic department as a whole. From the beginning I was challenged with ethics, confidentiality, professionalism, and patience. I was beyond my peers with responsibility, and that only continued to grow as time went on. It is the lessons I learned in my college career that strengthened my time spent as a coach. I am always looking for ways to grow, and have a reputation of inspiring others to do the same. After I graduated from college, I moved down to the Florida Keys to work amongst marine biologists. I have spent two years exploring the field in multiple different settings, but ultimately have been drawn back to athletics. I have found myself craving the responsibility, teamwork, professionalism, and overall expectation that I admired of collegiate athletics. It is this passion that drives me to switch gears back to swimming. My ultimate career goal is to work for a collegiate athletic department's internal operations. Compliance, academic advising, and life-skills are just a few career paths to my interest. I have the dedication to not only fulfill roles of a technical swim coach, but also inspire and motivate young athletes to achieve their best in life. I swam age group for many years, coached a few more, and love what a team atmosphere can accomplish.I am an extremely organized and detail-oriented individual, which is what I believe supported my achievements to continue throughout college and into the professional world. In reflecting my own athletic experience, I recognize my relatability and passion are essential. I would love the opportunity to build on my strengths, better my weaknesses, and share them with your athletes. As a member of your team, I can promise you that the passion I’d have for your athletes’ athletic, academic, and overall life success will not be lost. I am a firm believer that becoming an athlete provides endless skills benefiting the rest of your life. It can inspire people to become better students, positively impacts their social behaviors, and help develop good mental health. I am excited for my next chapter in the sport of swimming, and to give back to athletes! Thank you for the consideration, Katie Ferrero (248) 320-6280 KHF10@albion.edu
