I have been rowing since the summer of 7th grade and I enjoy pushing myself physically as well as the great camaraderie that comes from of being part of a team. I know my times could be a bit faster, but one thing I am is committed. I am a hard worker and I am not afraid to push myself whether it is physically or academically. I work hard on the water, in the classroom, and outside of school too. I have consistently worked two nights a week as a busboy since the summer before 10th grade while balancing rowing and a heavy load of honors and AP courses. By the time I graduate, I will have completed 17 AP courses - I have been an AP Scholar with Distinction for two years now. I am interested in being part of a rowing team in college where I can bring my all and continue with a sport I have always enjoyed. Finally - I would want coaches to know that my times are better on the water. I have rowed at Nationals in 2023 and 2024.
