Natalie Coughlin

After realizing how big of a hooch Danica is I realized that I over looked the best tom boy role model ever! She was born on August 23rd 1982 and went to University of California-Berkeley. So she's not some athlete with no brains! Her passions include surfing, cooking, health & fitness, and photography.  She's a 2005 ESPY award nominee for “Best Olympic Performance” and “Best Performance by a Female Athlete”.  She's also a
2008 Beijing Olympic Gold Medalist (100m Backstroke), Silver Medalist (Medley Relay and 4x100m Freestyle Relay), Bronze Medalist (100m Freestyle and 200m Individual Medley and 4x200m Freestyle Relay).
Natalie became the first woman in Olympic history to successfully win back-to-back Gold Medals in the 100m Backstroke, so she's a very awesome role model I knew I picked a winner!
