She has one brother, Sam.[5] Originally from Bradford, she lived in Yorkshire, until the age of 10 when her parents emigrated to New Zealand, where she attended Hillcrest High School in Hamilton.[5][6][7] White became interested in rowing following the Beijing Olympics in 2008, watching Georgina and Caroline Evers-Swindell. According to White, she attended a "two-week learn to row programme and really didn’t like it". She was later reintroduced to the sport the following year, when friends asked her to fill the final remaining seat on their boat.[8]

Competing with the Hamilton Rowing Club and the Waikato Regional Performance Center, she was named as the most promising athlete in 2009, and in 2010 was named the Hamilton Club's "rower of the year'.[5]

White attended the University of California, Los Angeles studying for a degree in psychobiology. While there, she competed in the NCAA Championships, where her team finished first in the V8+ Petite Final in 2013, and saw two third place finishes in the V8+ in 2014, going on to finish first in the C Final. She was named by the Collegiate Rowing Coaches Association, as a National Scholar-Athlete in 2015 and again in 2016.[5][11][12]

She represented Great Britain in the 2015 World Rowing U23 Championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, where her team finished third, behind Russia and the United States.[13] She, along with Georgie Haycraft advanced to the final round of the Rosie Mayglothling Trophy in 2015 in the double sculls, but lost to the Molesey Boat Club.[14] The same year, she won the gold medal at the Great Britain Under 23 event.[15]

She then moved to the University of Cambridge, to study for her Master of Philosophy at the Homerton College.[15][8][10] There, she studies in the Department of Clinical Neuroscience with a focus on researching Huntington’s disease.[23] White represented Cambridge University in the 2018 The Boat Race, also known as the Women’s Cancer Research UK Boat Race, where her team broke the course record by more than a minute, at an overall time of 18 minutes and 33 seconds.[16][17][18] She was one of two rowers from the 2017 team to return to the race in 2018, along with Miriam Goudet-Boukhatmi, where they again won with at time of 19 minutes and 15 seconds.[19][20][21]
