Chiara joined Laguna Beach Water Polo in the fall of 2018  and has enjoyed the rigorous practices and the new friends she has made here. She began playing water polo when she was 10, and started swimming competitively at around the same time.

It was hard saying goodbye to her former polo team, but she came to Laguna looking to step outside of her comfort zone and to broaden her experience.   Prior to discovering her love for water sports, most her time was spent on land sports including several years of soccer and gymnastics,  and usually more than one sport at a time.

 Aside from sports, Chiara plays the violin and likes to tinker on the guitar and piano.  If there’s any time left after that and homework, she’s busy watching “Friends” on Netflix.  You’ll probably notice when you see Chiara in and out of the pool that she almost always has a smile on her face.
