It doesn\u2019t give me a lot of time to come up for air,\u201d Nowicki told Swimming World. \u201cIt is all about setting goals and attaining them. The more goals I have, the stronger I get. That comes from wanting to make a team, wanting to get into law school. I am driven and that is the athlete in me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nowicki\u2019s appointment was confirmed on June 5, after the election of\u00a0<strong>Husain Al-Musallam<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/husain-al-musallam-elected-fina-president-appoints-american-brent-nowicki-as-executive-director\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">as FINA President in Qatar<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I took this job, it was a multi-faceted decision,\u201d Nowicki said. \u201c I was really pushed and guided by our president. I believe he has a vision that mirrors mine (it\u2019s about the athletes). As someone who has kept the mentality of an athlete, to hear someone who cared about those things was nice. That is what launched me into the idea that this is a guy I want to be led by. Being from a sport that has a nicer historical presence in my mind is what drove me to do this.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy career started with swimming. I grew up in upstate New York and was involved with the Star Swimming Club. I had modest success at Zones. That is where my competitiveness started.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nowicki was an attorney with the law firm Hodgson Russ for seven years, then served as the head of the CAS Anti-Doping Division for the Olympic Games at both Rio 2016 and Pyeongchang 2018.
