Hyman attended Shadow Mountain High School, and later did her collegiate swimming at Stanford University. She earned the NCAA's Today's Top VIII Award as a member of the Class of 2002. In 2002, she graduated from Stanford University.
Hyman swam at AFOX under head coach and swim improver Bob Gillett. He was not there to see her swim, but her performance in the "golden" swim is among his biggest accomplishments.
In 1984, Hyman was diagnosed with asthma.
On November 19, 2009, it was announced that Hyman would be teaching private swim instructions as a part of the fitness team at the Sanctuary on Camelback Resort in her home state of Arizona in Paradise Valley, working with people at all levels of performance ability.
