surf boat rowing
For the past four years, I've been participating in surf boat rowing alongside my team. We started in Sydney as I wanted a commitment outside of studies and work to add to my routine. In 2021, we relocated to Newcastle for our studies where we had an invitation to join the cooks hill surf club. We've had the pleasure of participating in three Australian National Titles across the country.
