- Welcome to my life!
2 years ago, I picked up a surfboard for the first time and my whole world changed. Now, I've given up everything I've worked for my whole life to pursue my dreams of becoming a full time professional surfer. I believe that if you have a dream, nothing should ever get in the way of it.
I'm very excited to share this crazy chaotic journey with you all, and I hope you enjoy the ride with me! Tune in every week on Sunday's and Wednesday's at 6pm PST / 9pm EST for new episodes on how life is going.
Special shoutout to all the people in my life who could make this vision come true, helping me share my story with you. I hope it motivates you to get out there and follow your dreams as well!

As an ex-pro surfer and current surf coach, I hate to burst your bubble, but surfing takes a lifetime of ocean experience to master, it's not just something you can get good at overnight because you suddenly decided you want to be a pro.
All the coaching, wave pool and surf skate training in the world won't give you the thousands and thousands of hours of real, ocean surfing experience you need to become an accomplished surfer.
Learning to read the ocean and the waves is paramount and there are NO short cuts to achieving this, the ocean will humble you more times than you will be able to count (you're probably well on your way lol), it's easily going to take you a solid decade to develop this skill set, which is the most crucial part of being a surfer.
You have to surf, in the ocean, every single day. EVERY DAY! It's the only way to learn.
Following your dreams is one thing, but having realistic expectations is probably a good place to start.
We appreciate the motivation. 🤙🏽
