Chose Miami for academics, weather, and ability to row year-round. “Miami has amazing rowing conditions and it’s so enjoyable to row seeing dolphins and palm trees around.”
Notes one of the best parts about Miami is the support that you receive. You don’t have to worry about anything else and there is a whole team of nutritionists, coaches, athletic trainers and laundry service to make your life so much easier.
Notes one of her biggest accomplishments being earning eighth place at the European Rowing Junior Championship
Won multiple Serbian and Austrian National Championships
