Private Lessons & Coaches in Santee, CA

Surfing since I was 10 years old all over the world. Started working at the mission bay aquatic center last summer teaching 3000+ students aged 6-22 in various conditions at mission beach, San Diego. Red Cross certified.

I’ve surfed most of my life. I currently work as a surf coach at the Kelly slater surf ranch and am partnered with the WSL. I have experience teaching people of all levels and can teach at almost any surf break. I have a range of equipment for students of different levels. 🤙

Over 20 years of surfing experience and 5 professionally. Love helping others improve their surfing skills.

Multiple years coaching high level travel baseball as well as providing private coaching instruction with an emphasis on pitching and throwing mechanics from ages 12-18. My own personal career was cut short due to injury, so I have channeled my love for the sport into helping teach the next generation of athletes. I have included current college stats of some of my previous players as proof of my ability and philosophy.
