Ella-Joan Browning '24 Recruiting Profile

I am a dual sport athlete. I’ve swam for over a decade at an elite level. My sophomore year I fell down some stairs and hurt my ankle. This is what most people describe as a defining moment; in order to stay in shape for what I thought was going to be my future collegiate swimming career I started rowing, it was at that moment, I discovered my passion. Since then I have sought out a team to row on; a professional coach, watched videos and read books, all to feed my passion for rowing. In one year I want to be rowing in college, pursuing my marketing degree and creating a business plan that will allow me to own my own business. In five years, I plan on owning my own business and in 10 years I hope to be able to franchise it.
I am loyal, determined, and driven. I know that if you work hard and stay focused anything is possible. I may be newer in this sport, but what I I may lack in experience I definitely make up and drive and desire. My dream would be to attend a school that supports not only my academic but also my athletic goals.
