My name is Julia McDonald, and I was born and raised in Colorful Colorado. As you'll see below, I’ve spent much of my life in and around pools, but when I'm not in the water, I love spending time with my communities—whether at church, CrossFit, or with my family.
I have a wide range of hobbies and interests, but what makes them special is sharing them with others. Whether watching anime with my brother, baking and cooking for friends, or going shopping with my sisters, I love the connection these activities bring.
My ideal day? It’s as simple as getting a coffee, slipping into my pajamas, and getting lost in a good book. Sci-fi and fantasy are my go-to genres, but I also enjoy diving into non-fiction and history.
Now you know a little bit about me! I’m excited to get to know you and your family better and look forward to the journey ahead. :)
I have been passionate about swimming for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my parents regularly took my siblings and me to the local recreation center, as well as to the lake for boating and jet skiing trips, and to the ocean when we lived in Florida for several years. Early on, I became involved in artistic swimming and summer swim teams, eventually progressing to a USA swim team. In high school, I continued to compete, swimming for both my USA team and my school team.
The pool has always felt like a second home to me. As I spent so much time there, it seemed only natural to pursue lifeguarding as my first job. Over the course of six years as a lifeguard, I was encouraged to become a group swim instructor. This opportunity quickly became a passion, as I found great fulfillment in teaching children an essential life skill while fostering a love for swimming.
My journey with ISR (Infant Swimming Resource) began after I met an ISR instructor at the YMCA where I was working. After learning about ISR’s mission and methodology, I knew it was the perfect fit for me. I completed my ISR training in Lubbock, Texas, in the summer of 2019, and since then, I have been dedicated to teaching ISR lessons. To date, I have had the privilege of teaching over 500 students across Colorado, Minnesota, Texas, and Costa Rica.
