I’m Ainsley Bedford, a country girl from upstate, NY with big dreams and a strong work ethic. I’m a Division I rower at Rutgers University, where our team is ranked 8th in the nation and recently took 2nd at the Big Ten Championships. Growing up in a small town shaped my love for hard work, healthy living, and staying true to who I am. Being a student-athlete has taught me discipline, balance, and resilience, all qualities I bring both on and off the water. I’m looking forward to pursuing a career in finance and connecting with brands that value authenticity, wellness, and ambition.
