Meet the Board
Encore's swim team is an entirely volunteer-run non-profit organization. All of our Board members have swimmers on the team this year and are happy to chat if you have questions!
Michelle Mauldwin is our 2025 Encore Board President. She is supported by Kelly Haan (Vice President), Brian (Treasurer), and Balbina Mattier (Secretary).
EXECUTIVE BOARD:
MICHELLE MAULDWIN - PRESIDENT
Michelle has been part of the Encore family since 2010 and it has been such an amazing experience for her and her family. She has loved watching both of her children grow a love for swimming and build countless friendships throughout their years on the team. After volunteering in several different positions throughout the seasons, she stepped in as President in 2024. With her son graduating this year, this could be her last season with Encore, and she's excited for what the season brings!
KELLY HAAN - VICE PRESIDENT
This is Kelly's third season with Encore. She has two daughters on the team, Penny (7) and Jean (10), who loved being on the team last year and can't wait for the season to start and pool water to get warm! They currently swim year round at Quicksilver, but still look forward to Encore :) Kelly is the person behind the replies to all info@encoreswimteam.com emails, and you will find her on the pool deck during the 5-7pm practice hours. Come say hi!
BRIAN MENDENHALL - TREASURER
Brian Mendenhall is Encore's Treasurer for 2024. This is his third year in this role and his 15 year old daughter's fifth year with Encore. When not keeping track of swim team finances, Brian is out at the pool or baseball field watching his twins compete.
OPEN ROLE - SECRETARY
VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR - JULIANA DIAZ
Juli is in her second year with Encore and her first as volunteer coordinator. With a deep passion for water - especially the ocean, her happy place - she is dedicated to helping young swimmers build confidence and strength in the pool. After witnessing her daughter Maia's incredible progress last season, she hopes to inspire other kids to develop the skills they need to safely enjoy all kinds of water activities, from pool swimming to adventures beyond. You'll often find Juli on the pool deck, keeping up with Maia and her younger brother, Lucas.
GENERAL BOARD:
MARIA SCALIA - REGISTRAR
Maria is the person you send checks to! She ensures that we have registrations in order and ready for the season. This is Maria's third season with Encore. Her youngest child, Vinnie, swims in the boys 13-14 bracket. Maria loves to watch how her son and other team members begin and continue their friendships throughout the season. She is happy to have found such a supportive team of coaches who truly care for the kids and make practices fun. She has volunteered as a Data worker the last 2 years and is glad to have found a new role in support of all families and Board members.
MIKE CHU - WEBSITE ADMINISTRATOR & PHOTOGRAPHER
Mike has been with Encore since 2022 when his daughter Melanie joined the team. Since 2023 he has been working as Encore’s website administrator and de facto team photographer. If you take any great photos during meets (or want to help with team photography), please contact him! Fun fact about Mike: despite his dedication to helping the swim team, he embarrassingly does not know how to swim!
ALYSSA - SOCIAL CHAIR
This is Alyssa's second season with Encore. Her daughter started in 6u and she's excited to swim again this season.
WE WILL SEE YOU ON THE POOL DECK!
Please come by and say hello to any and all of us during practices! We are typically near the sign-in table at the start of practice, as well as taking pictures and assisting where needed on the pool deck. We love to meet all of our swimmers and parents, and we'll welcome your input across the season. If you have any issues, please find us at practice, or contact us at the various emails, as appropriate.
