Hello!  I have been coxing for 5 years and currently am part of the D1 women's rowing team at San Diego State University.  Recently I have been invited to represent U.S.A at the 2018 World University Championships in Shanghai, China.  I will train in Michigan from May 31st until we depart for the championships, which are from August 10th-12th. I am incredibly grateful to have been offered this once in a lifetime opportunity.  Competing on this team would bring me one step closer to reaching my ultimate goal of coxing at the olympics.  I created this Gofundme in the hopes of reaching out to friends and family who are able to support me financially, as this is completely self funded.  My goal is to raise around $4600, which will cover all airfares, housing, food, equipment, and gear.  Thank you so much to all of my supporters, I will be sure to keep everybody updated on my journey this summer!  Go U.S.A!
