Rider Info:

Age: 23
Home: Bay Area, CA

Bio: I have lived in California most of my life, started windsurfing here and have since traveled up and down the coast from Oregon to Mexico, as well as spent some time in the Caribbean on the islands of Bonaire and Aruba. I am currently back in Cali but will head up to Oregon for part of the summer for the contests and training. I like anything that has to do with the ocean as I have spent most of my life in it.

Hobbies: Surf, guitar, just took up spear fishing in mexico which was actually a lot of fun.

Goals: To compete in the world tour, as well as to start training in waves as I have sort of been re-introduced to that scene. I try to promote the sport as much as possible as I feel that is important to its growth and I am in a position to do so.

Outlook: Have fun and do what you love, that’s the most important thing to me.

Future: Possibly a San Carlos trip this spring, and from there I will compete in the freestyle competition in the gorge as well as be working on an instructional video that should be out shortly thereafter.
