Before Texas
Competed at U23 GB trials as a junior and stroked the Remenham B Eight at Henley Royal for Leander in 2024 ... won the Peabody Cup at Henley Women’s in 2021 and 2023 ... stroked the GB coxless 4- for Coupe de la Jeunesse in 2022 ... won Henley Royal Regatta in Junior Women’s Eights in 2021.
Why Texas?
"The team atmosphere is what I cared most about, and I really believe that the atmosphere will drive me to be the best version of myself and get the best out of my rowing career in the future."
What led you to pursue rowing and what do you love most about it?
"The moment I got selected to row in the First Eight as a j16 and won Henley Royal in 2021 really summed up my love for the sport and the team atmosphere we had going, which made me want to take it much further than just junior level rowing. I love how well a team can do when you work together, and there is no better feeling than a team almost feeling like family."
