Adam was born and raised in Budapest, Hungary, where he quickly rose to become a national-level swimmer. He represented both his club and his country while competing across Europe, training alongside multiple European, World, and Olympic gold medalists. Through these experiences, Adam developed not only a passion for swimming but also an early love for coaching. His competitive career earned him a scholarship to Henderson State University, where he became a multiple team and conference record holder in the New South Intercollegiate Swim Conference (NSISC). Over his collegiate career, Adam achieved 15 NCAA All-American honors and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management. Following graduation, Adam joined the Arkansas Racers Swim Club while also serving as head coach for the Otter Creek summer league. In 2014, after marrying his wife Victoria, Adam relocated to Texas. He began coaching with Katy Aquatics as an age group coach, where he focused on technical development and gained valuable experience assisting with their High Performance group. In 2017, Adam co-founded the Texas Elite Swim Team (TEST). Under his leadership, the program has grown to more than 450 swimmers across multiple locations. Since its founding, Adam has primarily coached the Elite and Green groups in Houston, producing numerous Gulf Age Group (GAGS), Texas Age Group (TAGS), Sectionals, while helping establish TEST as a top-10 age group program in the region. Outside of coaching, Adam enjoys camping with his family, exploring national parks, and spending time with his two children, Noah and Olivia.

Born in 1986, Coach Jesse spent most of early life on a sail boat. His mom taught him how to swim by throwing him off the diving board yelling, “figure it out” while he was in the air around the age of 3. He started doing summer league with the Aqua Tigers at the age of 8. He swam at Katy High School under arguably the greatest coach, Dana Abbott. He qualified for state his Junior year on relays and Senior year in the 100 fly. His name is still on the school record board under the 200 Free Relay. While playing video games his senior year of high school his dad asked him, “What are you going to do with your life?” This sparked him to see if he could swim in college, as he fairly enjoyed it and it was an option. During this time he ended up swimming at Katy Aquatics, as it was the only option in the area at the time. He ended up at a Division II school, Delta State University, in Cleveland, Mississippi, where the adopted mascot is the Fighting Okra. He made Nationals on relays and had bonus times to swim the 50, 100, 200 Free. During his time at college he took a couple philosophy classes and Aristotle’s words “it’s a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable” stuck with him. Reluctantly, Coach Jesse started his coaching career at the age 14 for the Aqua Tigers. His mom was the President and it was an unpaid position. From there he worked with various summer league teams around Katy and did private lessons. He worked at Katy Aquatics from 2012-2017, before starting Texas Elite Swim Team with Ryan and Adam. He has worked with beginners all the way to Olympic Trial qualifiers. When not coaching, Coach Jesse enjoys pushing his body to the limits by training for triathlons. His best 140.6 time is 9:47 at Ironman Texas, and his best 70.3 time is 4:43 at Galveston. Beyond suffering, he enjoys reading manga and watching anime, listening to jam bands, camping, and being surrounded by his wife and 2 daughters.
