• USMS Profile Charlotte J Brynn - USMS Swimmer

A native of New Zealand, I was born for adventure, growing up, New Zealand’s scenic lakes, rugged mountains and ocean waters were my playground.

I now live in the state of Vermont with my family.  I am wired for adventure and am passionate about helping others realize their goals and dreams while stretching my own physical and mental limits.

As Executive Director of the Swimming Hole, Nonprofit Community Pool and Fitness Center, Stowe, Vermont (since 2001) Charlotte coaches local swimmers in the pool. She also runs Open Water Clinics and Camps, but her impact goes beyond Stowe Masters; she is an enthusiastic cheerleader and inspiring mentor to swimmers near and far.
