Enoch transitions to a full-time role after spending the previous two seasons as a volunteer assistant coach with the Crimson. Over the last two years, Enoch helped Harvard capture the 2022 Ivy League championship and finish in second place in 2023, while tutoring the distance and middle-distance groups. Enoch was also integral in the development of the team's non-travel squad, leading training sessions when the Crimson traveled to away meets.
 
As an athlete, Enoch was a part of two Ivy-title winning teams (2016, 2018), while claiming individual league championships in the 200 individual medley (2015, 2018), 400 individual medley (2015) and 800 freestyle relay (2018). A team captain in 2017-18, Enoch was the Ivy League High Point Swimmer of the Meet in 2015, qualified for the 2016 Olympic Trials in the 200 IM and was a four-time Second-Team Scholar All-American. During her time in Cambridge, Enoch was one of the top athletes across all sports at Harvard, capturing the 2015 Rookie of the Year for Harvard Athletics Award and the 2018 Francis H. Burr Scholarship to cap her career. She also collected numerous Harvard Women's Swimming and Diving accolades, earning the Outstanding Freshman Award in 2015, the Dr. Mary Ellen Mangano Award in 2016, and the Nancy Sato Award in 2018.
 
Prior to entering the collegiate coaching profession, Enoch was a coach for Eagle Swim Team in Owings Mills, Maryland during the summer of 2014 and 2015, and served in a similar capacity with Cambridge Masters Swim Club from Sept. 2015-Jan. 2016. In her time with Cambridge, Enoch organized and created weekly distance practices for post-collegiate competitive swimmers, including 12-time Olympic medalist Dara Torres. Enoch later founded and was an associate head coach for the Community Charter School of Cambridge Swim and Dive Team. During her eight-month stint from Dec. 2018-July 2019, Enoch, who also served as a middle and high school teacher at the school, developed a season plan and wrote tailored workouts for 18 students, ranging from ages 11-19, and from beginners to high school varsity-level athletes, including a member of the Puerto Rican national synchronized swimming team.
 
Outside of her swimming accomplishments, Enoch has also been involved in local politics, first as a field director for Harvard Forward Political Campaign (Oct. 2019-Aug. 2020) and then as a policy fellow for the Office of Boston City Councilor Michelle Wu (May 2020-April 2021). More recently, Enoch served as the director of constituent services and communication (April 2021-Aug. 2022) for the Office of State Representative Joan Meschino before transitioning to Meschino's Chief of Staff.
 
Enoch graduated from Harvard in 2018 with a bachelor's degree in government and a minor in psychology, while also obtaining a German certification. A year later, she earned her master's degree from the Harvard University Graduate School of Education.
