Favorite rowing memory:
During the spring season, our coach would hold additional, steady-state on the water practices for the varsity 8. Something about moving in sync for 2 hours, while the sun is out and you’re putting in the distance is just so serene, so peaceful and meditative. Well, I guess it’s between that and 3 seat accidently diving into the water after the coxswain toss.

Winning a gold at states (open 4+)
