BEFORE SKIDMORE: Competed in rowing at West Springfield High School...Massachusetts State Seal of Biliteracy recipient...AP Capstone Scholar...Dartmouth College Book Award Recipient

WHY SKIDMORE? "I chose to come compete at Skidmore because I saw small-bodied, driven, like-minded athletes on the team doing amazing things. It showed me that I can be an athlete here who can test my limits and while having a team that has my back every step of the way."

FAVORITE ATHLETICS MOMENT: "I love the pre-race energy in the boat and when everyone sends a fist bump down to bow and back, we all put our shades and game faces on and sit ready."

PREGAME ROUTINE/RITUAL: "I just love warming up with the team and feeling the electricity before the race. Then, when I have a free minute, I listen to Bodies by Drowning Pool for the adrenaline and Gasolina by Daddy Yankee for the vibes!"

FUN FACT PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW: "Contortion and yodeling were my major quarantine hobbies!"

FAVORITE PART OF CAMPUS AND IN DOWNTOWN SARATOGA SPRINGS: "Taqueria Guadalajara! Go get the sopes and agua fresca, it doesn't disappoint!"
