Why did you first try rowing?
I joined my college boat club as there was a free bbq at the introduction session
What are your proudest rowing achievements?
Winning the Blondie-Osiris races at Ely in 2021, and on the tideway in 2022.
What would winning The Boat Race mean to you?
The sum of 6 years of preparation.
