Missy Franklin is a FIVE-TIME OLYMPIC GOLD MEDALIST and multiple world record-holder in the sport of swimming. Franklin became a household name during the 2012 Olympic Games in London when she won four gold medals and one bronze medal, becoming one of the most decorated athletes of the Games.

She won gold in the 100-meter back, 200-meter back, 4×200-meter free relay, and 4×100-meter medley relay, and won bronze in the 4×100-meter free relay. Franklin's performance in the 200-meter backstroke broke the world record in the event and also marked the first time that an American had won the event in 40 years.

She followed her Olympic success by winning six gold medals at the 2013 FINA World Championships in Barcelona, becoming the most-decorated female swimmer in history at a single World Championships.

Missy's journey — from Colorado teenager to Olympic legend — is one of the most inspiring in American sports history. Her story of dedication, resilience, and the pursuit of excellence provides powerful lessons for anyone striving to achieve their own version of greatness.

Her presentations inspire audiences to pursue their goals with the same commitment, joy, and resilience that took her to the Olympic podium.
