Why Penn? “I chose Penn because I felt that I connected well with the school’s culture of balance. I wanted to be in a place where I would have the option to pursue my academics at a high level and row in a very competitive space, and Penn offered me that. I was also very excited to be at a university that was part of a city, so that I could experience city living alongside my university journey.”
