Let's make this birthday one to remember.

38 years old (Born on September 12, 1986)

Happy Birthday, Joanne Jackson! May your day be filled with laughter, cake, and fewer laps than usual. From making waves at the 2008 Beijing Olympics—where you swam your way to a brilliant bronze—to conquering Europe with gold in 2003, you've always known how to make a splash!

Here's hoping this year brings you as much joy as that victorious moment when you touched the wall ahead of everyone else. Keep swimming through life with style and humor—after all, birthdays are just another lap around the pool. Cheers to more medals (and fewer chlorine-filled mornings)!
