Why Yale: "Apart from being the best place to achieve my rowing and academic ambitions, I found the atmosphere at Yale to be unbelievable. On my visit everyone was so busy but in such high spirits, with every member of the team supporting each other to reach their shared goals. The YWC felt like a family and I knew immediately that I wanted to be a part of it."
