David Sung and Kera Sells Named Aquatics Team Members of the Month

Congratulations to David Sung and Kera Sells for being named the March Aquatics Co-Team Members of the Month.

David has been with us since June 2021 as a lifeguard and is an exemplary guard. He enjoys seafood, playing piano, reading non-fiction and being with his family. He loves working for Livonia Parks and Recreation because it’s a pleasant community to interact with.

Kera has been with us since September 2021 and is in the roles of Pool Supervisor and Lead Swim Instructor. She loves helping others and is rewarded when she sees swimmers become comfortable in the water and start swimming on their own. Kera loves working with her swim lesson kids, pasta, Reese’s, swimming and reading. Kera has shown that she is a great role model for younger staff to look up to and excels in her leadership positions within our Aquatics Division.

We are proud to have David and Kera on our team and appreciate all their hard work!
