Extracurricular Activities
Rowing- I have been rowing for three years in which two have
been at the Baltimore Rowing Club in Baltimore, MD. I currently
row in an 8, 4 and a 2-man boat with the high school team within
the club. During the spring season of 2015 the my team won a
silver medal at the mid-Atlantic regatta hosted in Princeton, NJ.
My first exposure to Rowing was when my family was living in
New Zealand while my Dad was posted in Wellington, New
Zealand with the Department of Homeland Security. During this
time and I had the opportunity to learn to row and compete with
the Scotts College row team. The team participated in various
local and countrywide events throughout New Zealand. While I
was on an official tour of the US Merchant Marine Academy I had
the opportunity to meet with the rowing team head coach and
other current Merchant Marine crew team members and would
like to pursue rowing if I had the opportunity to attend US
State Championships.
Underwater Hockey- An unknown sport to most Americans but
a growing sport in most other countries especially in New
Zealand. I was selected to be on the junior team at Scots
College located in Wellington during my freshman and
sophomore years. During my time on the team we won Regionals
and I was awarded the most valuable player award (MVP) and
participated in a national tournament between other schools in
Leadership/Volunteer activities
Camp WATERS- Started by Judd Anderson, Camp WATERS was
hosted by Baltimore Rowing Club and I was a counselor for the
inner city Baltimore youth and taught campers how to row
between the ages of 10-16. During this time I was on boat
in March 2015.
During the summer of 2014 and 2015 I employed with DRD pool
as a lifeguard and currently am certified in CPR and First Aid and
worked full time during both summers.
