Crew has been my happy place for the last three years. It has been a place of comfort and release as well as a source of motivation and challenge. During the pandemic and virtual school, I struggled with my mental health and as result stumbled with my academics. Crew helped me through this time. I have have had some of the best life experiences because of crew. Coxing my boat is where I am the most confident. It fuels be and I can’t wait to see where it can guide my future as a college athlete.
