I started skating when I was 5 years old. By the age of 8, I was teaching myself tricks in my DIY skatepark on the driveway in my backyard. Growing up in Santa Cruz, a legendary skate scene, meant that Derby Park was my playground. I moved to San Francisco in 2019 to attend college and found a whole new “playground”. I’ve been featured in several west coast skating films and I was stoked that my photograph recently appeared in Thrasher Magazine. I love skateboarding and hope to skate every day for the rest of my life.
