Sailing Background
Sailing became part of my life in 2010. I was drawn to the sport by the beauty of the boats themselves as well as the sustainable concept of being powered by only the wind. After only a couple of races I was hooked and started racing weekly. My positive attitude, strong work ethic, and eagerness to learn make me a desirable crew member. I continue to pursue more challenging and competitive sailing opportunities.
