Personal
Regina loves to write poetry, and in college, she was the editor in chief of the feminist literary and arts magazine "The F-word" and chaired the poetry workshop group "The Body Electric" named after Walt Whitman's poem. She admires her parents for their sheer love and determination and wants to grow up to be as kind and strong and persistent as they are. Regina is a 2017 and 2018 Scholar Athlete Award (CRCA) winner, for maintaining above a 3.5 GPA and participating in more than 75% of varsity races those years. She also was a 2018 All-Ivy First-Team selection. Regina is thankful for her high school coach, Brian Brunelle, and her home rowing club, Amoskeag, for instilling her love of the sport and their support.
