Alizee Brien

Rowing After the 2020 Summer Olympics, Brien realized she would not achieve her Olympic dream as a cyclist. In 2021, she spoke to her former coach at the Montreal Rowing Club and asked him if he thought she had a chance to compete in the sport as an Olympian, to which he agreed it could be possible. She won both of her events at the 2022 Royal Canadian Henley Regatta, winning both her single scull races. She placed 4th in the Women's Single Sculls event, thereby qualifying a quota spot for Canada at the Pan American Games (Rowing at the 2023 Pan American Games – Qualification).

Brien attended the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago as a member of the Canadian rowing team, the first time she rowed competitively internationally in crew boats rather than solo. Following her three medal games, she told Rowing Canada of her Pan Am Games experience that "There have been a lot of memorable moments for me this week. But I think it has been the team and the team spirit that I will remember the most. Winning a gold medal in the eight was incredible but being part of the team and being with the support staff and getting to experience the Games with the crowds and volunteers, has been a lot of fun."

Personal Brien received her bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering and worked as a junior engineer before going back to the Université de Montréal to study for a degree in psychology, where she also competed on the collegiate rowing teams for the Montreal Carabins.
