Discovering rowing helped me find a new passion and purpose during a challenging time in my life. In college, I want to study psychiatry so that I can help others who are facing issues similar to my own. Rowing at the collegiate level would challenge me to push my limits both physically and mentally; and I believe that I can tackle that challenge. I am perseverant and fiercely self-driven, and I am ready to put in the work to become the absolute best rower I can be.
