Michelle began her coaching career in her hometown, Paris, KY, where she was an assistant coach of the Paris-Bourbon County YMCA. She has been teaching swim lessons since 1995. Michelle appreciates what summer swim team has to offer all levels of swimmers. Providing a fun, positive environment, learning the importance of good sportsmanship, and learning how to be a supportive teammate are her number one goals for the Gators. Michelle is very grateful for the opportunity to teach children a skill they can use for the rest of their lives. She appreciates you choosing the Signature Club Swim & Dive Team as your child's summer swim and dive program and looks forward to working with your child to achieve his or her goals whether it be learning to swim the length of the pool or winning an event at the championship meet. Michelle is married to Dave Doolin, Head Coach of the Lexington Dolphins, and has three sons - Cash, Hayes, and Vin.
