Last week, PCR’s junior and senior student-athletes spent the evening at PwC’s 2001 Market Street office for a career exploration session. The visit brought them into the room with PwC staff who shared information about the firm, their rowing backgrounds, and the experiences that shaped their early careers and led them to their current roles.

Thank you to Janine Devine and Kyle Comegys for coordinating the visit, and to the PwC team, including Drew Miller, Kate Butscher, Terrance Jagrup, Siobhan Guthrie, and Jade Miller, for spending the evening with our rowers and talking with them about your work and the opportunities PwC offers.

Bringing our student-athletes into a professional setting designed specifically for them strengthens the support they receive through PCR and gives them useful reference points as they plan for life beyond high school.

We appreciate PwC for welcoming Philadelphia City Rowing into their workplace and making time for this meaningful session! 🏙️
