Assistant Coach
2022 is Izzie’s first season with Oakland Strokes. Izzie comes to our program with over 40 years of coaching and rowing experience. Programs coached include the novice women at Temple University and Mount Holyoke College (MHC) and at Craftsbury Sculling Center and Florida Rowing Center. She is most proud of the novice women who earned the title “most successful crew in MHC program history” after winning Eastern Sprints and finishing third at national championships. Izzie is a two-time US National Team member competing in the heavyweight 4X and earning silver in the lightweight 2X, Pan Am Games, 1995. Izzie started rowing as a junior at Northfield Mount Hermon on the Connecticut River in Massachusetts. Izzie’s hopes for Oakland Strokes student-athletes are to help them realize the life-long value in: 1) showing up and 2) trying their best-on-that-day everyday.
In grad school she studied 2K race performance and carbohydrate consumption. Izzie created The Boathouse Row Cookbook; an inspirational example of the strong and uplifting bond among the Philadelphia rowing community. She has been a speaker at USRowing annual conventions and provides nutrition guidance to rowing programs nationally. Previous work includes being a clinical dietitian at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania and Alta Bates Summit Medical Center.
When not coaching, Izzie can be found sculling at Berkeley Paddle and Rowing Club, teaching nutrition and exercise physiology at San Jose State University or playing with her two daughters; one plays beach volleyball and the other rows.
