FOUNDER OF UNITED SOULWAVES
"I founded UNITED SOULWAVES to bring this ineffable surfing experience to people wherever the Soulwaves unite us"
All my life I have been chasing the waves to be one with the ocean and to feel this incomparable feeling of bonding... To ride those very special waves, the SOULWAVES...where you suddenly feel that your emotions and your spirit are unfolding freely and that you have to be here on this wave right now because your soul is diving down beneath the wave and becoming one with the depth of the ocean. I founded UNITED SOULWAVES to bring this ineffable surfing experience to people wherever the Soulwaves unite us.
After living a nomad life for the first few years of my life I became obsessed with learning to surf when I caught my first wave in California. In more than 30 years as a surfer I always enjoyed traveling around the world, my natural ability to connect with people, providing technical tips to locals and friends and to convince newbies that catching waves is the best thing on this planet. I’ve been fortunate enough to enjoy it both as an ISA Surf Coach and lifestyle for so many years. I believe that there is no better way to experience the world of surfing than with UNITED SOULWAVES, and whether you’re a beginner or an experienced surfer UNITED SOULWAVES will exceed your expectations of learning to ride the waves.
As a surfer and environmental scientist, ocean conservation plays a central role in my career and everyday life. And as a passionate free diver, I'm fortunate enough to learn about the beauty beneath the waves every day. My mission is to bring people the ultimate surfing fun and at the same time to inspire and promote impactful solutions to some of the most critical threats to our oceans we face as surfers.
