About Me

Greetings! I’m Angelo Rovella, and I’m thrilled to welcome you to MissionRowing.org, a space dedicated to my enduring passion for rowing. While my dream of becoming a professional rower didn’t materialize, my love for the sport has never wavered.

This website is my way of turning that dream into something meaningful—by sharing my thoughts, experiences, and insights about rowing with you.

From Dreams to Determination

I’ve been an amateur rower for as long as I can remember. As a young man, I had aspirations of going pro, imagining myself racing across waters with skill and precision. Life, however, had other plans. But that didn’t crush my love for the sport; if anything, it deepened my appreciation for rowing as a lifelong pursuit.

Writing about rowing always felt like a natural extension of my passion, yet time constraints made it difficult to start. Owning MissionRowing.org changed that. It gave me the opportunity to finally share my voice and my dedication to the sport with a broader audience.

What MissionRowing.org Stands For

MissionRowing.org isn’t just a website; it’s a home for anyone who shares my love for rowing. My mission is simple: to inspire, inform, and celebrate all things rowing—whether you’re an aspiring rower, a seasoned professional, or simply someone curious about the sport.

I believe rowing is more than just a physical activity; it’s a way of life that fosters discipline, teamwork, and perseverance. Through my writing, I hope to spark a passion for rowing in others and build a community of like-minded enthusiasts.

And don’t worry, I don’t take myself too seriously—I’m just a guy who loves rowing and wants to share that love with the world.

These are the kinds of visuals I aspire to incorporate into the site as it grows—so stay tuned!
