I have been rowing for 2 years and am currently a Junior in high school. My novice year I fell in love with erging, which resulted in me finding a place on the varsity boats. Being around more skilled teammates made me work harder than ever. From that point on, I went all in on crew. Having come full circle, I now find myself being the one enthusiastically leading team workouts and mentoring my fellow crew.
I have determination and I love what I do. What keeps me motivated in this sport is continually working on my imperfections. Rowing can never be perfect, but I will always strive to chase it. I know I will climb to the peak of rowing, and elevate my team along with me. I hope to find that experience in college.
