About Lia Neal — retired Olympics swimming athlete

Lia Neal is a 2x Olympian and Stanford alum with a polished, travel-forward presence that blends elite athletic credibility with lifestyle appeal. She’s a strong fit for brands looking for a creator who can authentically connect performance, wellness, fashion, and aspirational everyday content.


Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?

 Lia is the first woman of Black descent to swim an Olympic final for the United States and has won an Olympic Bronze and Silver medal. She is of African-American and Chinese descent, who speaks English, Cantonese and Mandarin. The Brooklyn, NY native has an outstanding work ethic that she's built over the course of her 17-year swim career and made her a social influencer on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, and a popular motivational speaker. Lia is no stranger to travel and it is actually one of her passions. Her swimming has brought her to all reaches of the world whether it be competing in places like Peru, the London Olympics, Rio Olympics, Russia, and Budapest; or doing sports diplomacy work in China, Hong Kong, and Singapore; or training with the friends she's made all over the world in Australia, The Netherlands, and across the country. In addition to traveling, Lia is passionate about photography, curating music playlists, art, all that's beautiful in the world, food, skincare, haircare, and fashion.
