About Michele

My ISR Story

I became interested in the ISR program after the birth of my first child. My husband and I have a pond and boat; water safety for our daughter was very important. She was enrolled in ISR lessons. I was very intrigued with the program and amazed by the results. Our then 1 year old daughter learned to swim-float-swim. I thought about becoming an Instructor in the area, but the timing was not right. After having our second daughter, and having her also complete the ISR program, I knew this was something I wanted to do in my life. I wanted to be able to teach other children the same swimming survival skills that my daughters had learned. I became a certified ISR Instructor in 2014 in the Grand Rapids, Michigan area. I have now also taught my son the ISR Self-Rescue® technique. I look forward to teaching your children the ISR Self-Rescue® skills that my children have learned.

A Little About Michele

I am a native to Michigan, growing up in the southwestern part by New Buffalo which is along the Lake Michigan coast line. I spent many summers swimming at Lake Michigan and in family pools. I am an alumni from Michigan State University. After college I spent a total of nine years in Indianapolis, IN and Dayton, OH working in the animal health industry as a sales representative. After the birth of my first daughter, my husband Matt and I moved to Caledonia, MI.  We have three children that keep us busy.  Our children enjoy riding horses, playing the piano, swimming  and being outside.  I enjoy gardening, boating, being outside and volunteering at church and in the community. 

I started Angel Swimmers LLC in 2015 and am the owner. The name came from how children look like an “Angels” when in the floating position.
