Maker, surfer, traveller


Growing up as a professional surfer, I was fortunate enough to travel the world. I competed on the World Qualifying Series, won the European Championship and secured English & British titles along the way.

Being part of the surf tour gave me a unique perspective on travelling and an intimate relationship with the ocean. This intersection of sea, surf and travel has informed my multi passionate life.

In my next chapter I immersed myself in the entrepreneurial landscape focused on technology and innovation. I spent the next few years in the thriving San Francisco startup ecosystem. Here, I honed an insatiable curiosity to create, build, and lead. I spearheaded a crowdfunding campaign, gaining insights on strategic marketing and capital raising.

My fascination with technology led to an obsession to constantly learn, collaborate and bring ideas to fruition.

Now settled in where I consider to be a slice of paradise, Byron Bay, Australia I work remotely as the head of the Online Team at The Surfboard Warehouse. Transitioning into e-commerce felt like a natural progression, merging my love of introducing people to the ocean with leveraging technology for customer satisfaction. Additionally, I continue to surf and pursue my passion projects.
