I love what I am studying, I find it complements my life as a high-performance athlete as it means I have dual focuses so when I am stressed about rowing or working through an injury I can switch off from rowing and focus my energy on something else productive. My studies and rowing have taught me many different life skills such as resilience, confidence, organisation, time management, empathy, and toughness. These skills and values will set me in good stead in my post-athlete career.
