Caroline Burckle is an Olympic Medalist, artist and co-founder of RISE Athletes.
Caroline was born and raised in Louisville, KY. She attended University of Florida on swimming scholarship, made the 2008 Olympics for Team USA in Swimming, and then went on to obtain both her Associate of Arts in Product Development and Masters in Sport Psychology.
She is an athlete-turned-artist, and has used her pre-and-post Olympic experiences to transform her life. She is Co-Founder of RISE Athletes alongside Olympic Medalist Rebecca Soni.
RISE is a Mindset Development Program where Professional & Olympic athletes mentor the next generation of teen athletes on the power of cultivating a positive mindset in sport. Caroline believes in the power of mind+body connection, and has used her physical setbacks as blessings to learn more deeply about the power of the nervous system in all that we create.
She is deeply into the arts, and freehand sketches her unconventional “human form figures” as a form of mental-movement. She lives for her open water ocean swims and free-spirited nature travels when she isn’t at home building RISE.
