2K progression
Athletic profile
I row with Row New York and, as of October 2026, am just over a year into the sport. I am continuing to build strength, endurance, and technical consistency. Rowing is one of the clearest ways I measure progress: the preparation shows up in the boat, on the erg, and in the result.
My 2k improved from 7:30.9 on December 15, 2025 to 6:34.4 on October 18, 2026 — a 56.5-second improvement. The October result was 17.6 seconds faster than my previous 6:52.0 benchmark from May.
On September 10, 2026, I completed a 5k erg training benchmark in 18:34.1 (1:51.4/500m) at an average rate of 23 spm, closing the final 1k in 3:33.7 (1:46.8/500m) at 25 spm.
On October 18, 2026, I completed a 2k erg test in 6:34.4 (1:38.6/500m) at an average rate of 32 spm. The piece was negative-split across each 500m: 1:39.6 / 1:39.5 / 1:39.0 / 1:36.3, with the final 500 at 34.9 spm. The test was video-recorded from two angles; verification footage is available privately to coaches on request. My current development goal is sub-6:30.

Academic profile
I currently hold a cumulative 95.79 / 100 unweighted GPA. My current SAT preparation benchmark is in the 1400s based on ongoing practice and coursework; this is a working benchmark, not an official SAT score. I am registered for the October and November 2026 SAT administrations and am targeting 1500+, with Math moving toward 800 and Reading & Writing toward 720+.
I am interested in academic areas that require close reading, structured argument, careful evidence, and responsibility: law, public policy, economics, history, philosophy, and political institutions.
My goal is to find a college environment where I can grow intellectually, contribute to a rowing team, and build a strong foundation for law school or another rigorous graduate path.
Personal story
Rowing does not allow much hiding. A rower has to face preparation, consistency, pain, teamwork, and measurable results. That has changed the way I think about improvement.
A 2k score does not tell the whole story, but it does show whether the work is moving in the right direction. Improving from 6:52.0 in May to 6:34.4 in October reinforced that progress comes from structure and ownership, not just effort.
That lesson matters beyond rowing. In school, in writing, and in future legal or public-policy work, the same principle applies: evidence matters, preparation matters, and discipline compounds.
College goals
I am looking for a college with strong teaching, demanding writing and discussion-based courses, and opportunities connected to law, public life, policy, history, economics, and civic institutions.
I want to contribute to a rowing program where I can keep improving, support my teammates, and compete in an environment that rewards consistency, discipline, and accountability.
