Andrew Seliskar Elected as Athlete Representative to USA Swimming Board of Directors
USA Swimming, the national governing body for the sport of swimming in the United States, today announced that Olympian Andrew Seliskar has been elected as an Athlete Representative to the organization’s Board of Directors.
Due to a tie in the initial round of voting for the 10-Year Athlete Representative on the USA Swimming Board of Directors (“BoD”), the election reopened. Seliskar emerged as the winner and will serve as the voice of athletes at the highest level of USA Swimming’s governance.
Seliskar competed within the USA Swimming ecosystem for more than a decade, progressing from summer league swimmer in Northern Virginia to representing the United States at the Olympic Games in Tokyo 2020. A graduate of UC Berkeley with a degree in Environmental Economics and Policy, Seliskar was an NCAA champion with the Golden Bears before pursuing a professional career.
He currently works as an Associate with McKinsey & Company in Dallas, Texas, and is pursuing his MBA at the University of Texas’ McCombs School of Business. Seliskar’s experience as both an elite athlete and a business strategist positions him to bring a strong perspective to the Board’s athlete voice.
“We are thrilled to welcome Andrew to the USA Swimming Board of Directors,” said Natalie Coughlin, USA Swimming Board Chair. “His unique blend of Olympic experience and professional expertise will be invaluable in shaping the future of our sport and ensuring athletes remain at the center of our strategy.”
Seliskar will join the Board effective immediately. The complete list of USA Swimming Board of Directors members is available here.
