I have spent most of my life playing competitive sports, primarily playing competitive club soccer and flag football. Entering high school, I joined the basketball team, but when our school rowing team was established, I decided to fully dedicate myself to the sport, which has quickly become my passion. Despite being our first-year rowing as a team in 2023/2024, we successfully competed in several regattas across the state and qualified for the Scholastic Nationals which we attended in May.
I consider myself hardworking, focused and ambitious. I approach every challenge with optimism and a positive mindset, no matter how hard it may be. As a junior, I was honored to be named the team co-captain.
I am versatile on the boat and willing to fill in at any position, whether it's a stroke or bow seat, sculling or sweeping. I will be committed to give it 110% - 100% of the time!
In addition to sports, I excel in academics and extracurricular activities. I take advanced courses at my school and actively participate in various clubs related to science and biology. I am also working on co-create a service organization and interning at a local coral reef restoration laboratory.
I thank you for spending the time to read this and please feel free to reach out to me if you have any additional questions.
