Coaches
Our professional coaching staff looks to provide swimmers an opportunity to have fun and enhance their swimming ability through application of the latest techniques while promoting core values of education, character, leadership and competition.
Coach Carlton grew up in Philadelphia and learned to swim at the age of five through the Germantown YMCA. As he progressed through their program, he began swimming competitively for the Philadelphia Department of Recreation, also known as PDR Swimming. With the coaching expertise of Hall of Fame swim coach Jim Ellis, he continued to excel as a swimmer. Although he stepped away from competitive swimming to attend college and work as a financial advisor, his desire to work with swimmers never faded. He returned to the sport ten years ago with the Easton Aquatic Club when his oldest child joined the team, initially serving as a parent board member, then as an assistant coach, and eventually becoming the head coach. He is a member of USA Swimming, YMCA Swimming, and the American Swim Coaches Association, and he previously served as the Chair of the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Committee for Middle Atlantic Swimming. His three children all swam on the team, and he looks forward to working with Easton Aquatic Club swimmers and helping them achieve their goals both in and out of the pool.
Coach Danny swam for one year as a member of the Easton Aquatic Club but left quite an impression as he holds several team records. He also swam for Pen Argyl High School, Blue Eagle Swim Team, and the Middle Atlantic Zone Team and Lafayette College where he is studying. His favorite stroke is butterfly. This is Coach Danny's 3rd season on deck with EAC.
Coach Mina began swimming with EAC in 2017 and went on to swim for Easton Area HS, and Wilkes University. Her favorite stroke, breaststroke. She attends Bloomsburg University and is Army ROTC.
