About
I am an experienced surfer and triathlete with 1o+ years of surfing and athletic experience. A graduate of Tulane University, I help my students use surfing and athletics to inspire them in all aspects of life. I am eager to help you or your child grow.
Surfing is a wonderful sport that you can do throughout your entire life. I enjoy teaching people how to surf and connecting them to the ocean and all its wonder.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I meet my student at the beach and begin by asking questions to determine their level of comfortability in the ocean. I never push my students in any way that can lead to risk. I start slow and speed up the training when the student is ready.

I have taught surf lessons to many people from all over the nation over the past 5 years. I have a 100% success rate in regards to getting a student to stand up.
