Hi! My name is Kate Rasmussen and I’ve been rowing since the Fall of 2022. I’ve been a runner all my life but decided to switch to rowing in my Freshman year due to two stress fractures that I developed from cross country running. I fell in love with rowing from the start and would love to row for you in college. I'm an exceptional candidate because I use my competitiveness to motivate myself and others to do better. Already this year, I've decreased my 5K erg time dramatically after increasing my weight training and erg practice. It's important to me to balance both academics and athletics while still having time for God and family. I appreciate your consideration and I know that I would be a valuable member of your team.
