Biography

As a retired language teacher who loves kayaking, I explored the range of water conditions managed by a flat-water sprint K4 (four paddlers and 11m long). We achieved two-thirds of the Arctic Canoe Race, including intermediate-level rapids.

I still coach and race and give presentations, as well as encouraging likely individuals to apply. In 2016 I won the gold medal with a partner in the Mixed K2 race in the Masters World Championships in Brandenburg.
