Tanya Lubansky
Tanya Lubansky has joined the Mountain Lakes Rowing Club this year as
Assistant Coach. Having always had a passion for water sports and
physical exercise, Tanya tried out for crew as a naive freshmen at
Wheaton College. Rowing soon became a passion and she continued to push
herself harder each year, successfully competing at large events such
as Dad Vail and Head of the Charles. After graduating in 2006 with a BS
in Environmental Studies, Tanya moved to DC and rowed for TBCRacing's
Open Womens Team. There she gained experience rowing in 8+, 4+, 4-, 2-,
4X, and 2X shells, training with a USRowing Development Camp, and
further competition both locally and nationally.
Tanya is excited to join MLRC and to be able to use her passion for
rowing to help motivate students. She is currently pursuing a doctorate
in Ecology at Rutgers/NJIT and working on multiple projects including
the development of an automated identification system for coral reef
fish and quantifying distribution shifts of baleen whales in the Gulf
of Maine.
