Rehab to Row with Lauren Miller

BIO: We are excited to welcome Lauren Miller to the Rowing on the Square Podcast.  Lauren started her rowing career as a walk on at the University of Minnesota. Prior to finding rowing, she was an avid swimmer and triathlete and had spent plenty of time in the water rather than on the water in a rowing shell. After a few short months as a novice, she fell in love with the sport and completed her collegiate rowing career in May of 2018. Following graduation with a Neuroscience B.S., Lauren moved out to Saratoga Springs, NY to train with The Advanced Rowing Initiative of the Northeast (ARION). She trained with ARION for one year before coming back to the University of Minnesota as the graduate assistant coach for the women's rowing team, where she also completed her Master's in Business Administration. While she initially had no intention of continuing to train at the elite level after her first year at ARION, she found herself missing high-level training and decided to give it another shot at ARION. After her first few months of training out of graduate school, she was invited to compete with the Pan American team in 2023. She still currently lives in Saratoga and is excited to have recovered from her back injury that she has been rehabilitating since 2024.  Outside of rowing, she loves to bike, read, draw, spend time with friends, pet dogs, and bake sourdough.
