How do I get excel to recognize my header row as a default? I do not want to
check "Header Row" everytime I sort data.

Format the headers bold. Excel recognizes that and defaults to Headers rows.

It often helps if you set the format differently from the rest of the
sheet, eg bold, or different foreground/background colours.

Hope this helps.

Indeed! Apparently any difference in formatting will do. I never noticed that!
