Growing up on a Caribbean Island, it was always interesting to Karin Browne that - for a place surrounded by water - few people were competent swimmers. Inspired by this and her love for swimming, Karin's Master's of Arts Recreation and Leisure studies work and research involves increasing access to aquatic programs for BIPOC populations. To do this, she works hard to create spaces that feel comfortable and safe, establishing trusting relationships with people learning to swim.
