This entire week I have been practicing with both Nico and Sam in preparation for the upcoming events this summer. I know that at these different events I will be encountering competition of varying skill levels, strengths, and weaknesses and am excited about having the opportunity to clash against these other sailors. I know that these summer events are going to be excellent learning opportunities and will give me the chance to showcase the skills on which I have been working so very hard to perfect. I will continue updating this blog with pictures and information as I travel with my family and teammates!
