What led you to pursue rowing and what do you love most about it?
"Before rowing, I competed in sprint canoe at the national level. Through RBC training grounds, I was identified as having strong potential for rowing and decide to make the switch. I love that rowing challenges me physically and mentally every day. My favorite part about rowing is working together as a team and seeing the results from all our hard work."
