Personal… Born May 16, 1996… daughter of Artur and Aniaa Gilowski… human physiology and Spanish double major.

Why Iowa… I chose Iowa because it felt very welcoming.

My favorite aspect of rowing is… How it is a team sport and we are only as good as the weakest link.

What made you want to become a rower… I started because someone told me about it and I kept with it because it is really fun.
