S.S. ENDURANCE

~climb mountains, eat cookies~

Hi, I’m Serena!

I am enthusiastic about all things sports and also care a lot about inclusion, sustainability, and scientific validity. I have raced multiple 50k and 50-mile trail races as well as 70.3 triathlons, and so far have completed one full 140.6 triathlon distance. As a rower in college I helped our 8+ win the Head of the Charles Regatta. I am passionate about athlete-centered and evidence-based coaching for all endurance sports from the 2k to the 100+ mile distance. Check out my coaching philosophy here.

I graduated from Harvard with a B.S. in Engineering Sciences (and a “minor” in Rowing) and received my M.D. from the University of California, San Francisco. During medical school, I also completed a M.Sc. in Bioengineering at the University of California, Berkeley. Most recently, I participated in the Fellowship in Rowing Coaching Leadership at Community Rowing, Inc. in Boston.

Aside from education and sports, some things I am grateful for include: The smell of redwoods after it rains. Two-thirds into a race distance. Family, especially our calico cat Ramona. Brownies. Methods sections of papers. The texture of focaccia dough. Muir and the Mountain route on Zwift. Natalie Coffin Greene Park in Ross, California. Post-race protein cookies. And all your support! Thank you!

WELCOME!
