What is your favorite trick? 

Mobe.

How did you get into kiteboarding?

My parents bought me a power kite for my birthday and as soon as I launched it and felt the power I was immediately hooked.  I took it to the beach every time I could and soon saw people doing it on the water and knew that was what I wanted to do.

What motivated you to become a professional athlete?

Watching videos online of people kiting in amazing places all around the globe motivated me to spend as much time on the water as possible so that I could travel the world kiting.

What is #LiveFreeRideFree for you?

Live free, ride free is the embodiment of kitesurfing.  We use a kite to propel us many different ways.  Every person has a unique view on kiteboarding and the things they can do with it. It is a simple freedom that can be incredibly rewarding.

Your motto?

Do a job you love and you will never work a day in your life.
