Mary Evans participated in 2004 and 2006 AC Contests in Wales and Italy and brings a wealth of small boat experience, having grown up rowing and sailing a variety of small boats in New York City and Rhode Island. 
​
She co-ran a Bantry Bay gig program in Warren, RI for five years with Riley Hall. Now she is spending much time training up a future AC rower, her adorable two year-old son, Otto.

She has provided delicious meals as the cook for Team USA's Greens Island trainings since 2012. If we're lucky enough, she'll join us for a row and we can see her expert form and metronomic timing. And we might also get to hear her sing traditional songs and play her concertina.
