Why Penn? "Penn is one of the greatest schools in the world. It’s a place where phenomenal professors mold students into intellectuals. Penn also has a great lightweight rowing program that affords so much opportunity. The program is improving with each year and rows on the beautiful and historic Schuylkill River."

Why rowing? "I simply love everything about the sport of rowing. The intensity of rowing is paired with precision and technique. This creates an amazing dichotomy between pain and elegance. Lastly, I love the team aspect of rowing. Knowing that eight other people are relying on you and you on them creates an unbreakable bond not found in other sports."
