Personal

• Daughter to Joshua and Leslie Goldknopf
• Sister to Camden Goldknopf
• “I joined my school’s rowing team in 6th grade after getting cut from the volleyball team for being too small. Then I decided I wanted to be a rower, but the middle school coach told me I was better suited to be a coxswain. I was upset but my parents taught me that what’s best for the team isn’t always what I want. After that I fell in love with coxing and even coxed my first varsity states race the spring of my 6th grade year.”
• Fun Fact: I love legos
