I agree with Rajesh. With her passion and demonstrated interested in the global water crisis, she has earned a place a the table! Can we clone her?

As Past President of the Chagrin Valley Rotary Club I've had the privilege of getting to know both Katie and Blue Plant/Peer Water Exchange well over the last two years. Katie is an excellent fit with the PWX team.

She has an inspirational personality and passion for improving the world water's crisis. She can motivate the others' support of as demonstrated by raising over $100,000 as she rowed solo across the Atlantic Ocean from Africa to South America. Thousands followed her progress daily.

Even disappointments like having her car with road bike and oars from the ocean row stolen don't seem to diminish her passion. She is overcoming this setback as she has others by focusing on teaching others to focus on results. Her motto is "we all can do more than we think we can do."

Future occupational, educational and endurance experiences will make her an icon for motivating others. Her web site http://rowforwater.com/ demonstrates her ability to communicate and generate the dialog needed to accelerate progress by the sharing experiences and opportunities.
