Jackson's Message to ROW Team: BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR WILDLIFE FOR ME!

Jackson embarked on his rowing journey in the fall of his freshman year in 2009. He realized he probably wouldn’t reach 6'5" for other sports. His dad's friend had a daughter who rowed, and this introduction initiated Jackson's rowing journey in his hometown of Asheville, where he joined the rowing team.

Jackson continued his rowing success in college, where he was in the 7th seat (stroke pair), and later took part in masters programs in Chicago. He has rowed in the Head of the Charles 7 times (3x as a college athlete, 4x since then).

Jackson brought a wealth of experience to the ROW team, with his rich background in rowing, both as an athlete and a coach.
We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Jackson for his unwavering dedication, energy, and kindness. His countless contributions have truly helped ROW flourish. Under his guidance, we’ve seen the introduction of new programs, practice squads, and competition opportunities, allowing us to serve more survivors than ever with consistent support and exercise. While it's difficult for us to say goodbye, we are genuinely excited for Jackson and his wonderful wife as they embark on this new adventure in the Pacific Northwest for her medical residency. This new chapter is a remarkable opportunity for both of them, and we wish them all the best as they begin this journey!
