Coaches

I am the mother of five, grandmother of 7, and great grandmother of 2 – all amazing human beings as you can imagine.   I returned to rowing in the early 2000’s and I have been working with, and building teams for the past 25 years. I co-founded Chinook Performance Racing in 2014, a unique composite group of athletes from across North America who shared a training plan, and competed together, but all lived in various cities throughout the US and Canada.   In 2021, it was time to try something new, so I started Endeavor Racing Alliance, a team of mostly women who also live miles apart from one another and cannot train together daily, but we travel the world and compete together at races that seem fun and competitive.  We also work with junior rowers in different capacities to support them as they endeavor to row in college and work toward the national team.

TJC is such a great organization.  The families and the kids have been a pleasure to work with over the years, and seeing our kids make college rosters at Stanford, the Naval Academy, University of Virginia, University of Kansas, to name a few, is always a point of pride. We are here to teach young people what it means to be a teammate, to put others before themselves, to help them figure out how to push hard physically and reach a little deeper, and to help them figure out what it means to be a student athlete.  We hope that they leave stronger and more focused than when they arrived, and that the friendships they establish here last a lifetime. I love this sport and I hope the kids fall in love with it as well!”

Coach Malcolm began her serious pursuit of athletics in high school and college playing volleyball, basketball and track.  After college she dabbled in 4-WO(man) beach volleyball in Southern California.  Fast forward – she began rowing when her youngest son was 6 months old in 2002 – in the desert of Tempe, AZ – and hasn’t looked back.  While always rowing with her small home club – early on she sought additional opportunities to improve her skills and race at larger national and international regattas.  She has coached a masters program and was the head rowing coach of Arizona State University.  ”I love the mental and physical aspects of rowing – working to find the rhythm with like-minded athletes is a gratifying challenge.  I have come to appreciate that each chapter is a little different and, though it’s not a success-only journey, embracing the continuous learning is the reward.
