About Me

I am a professional athlete, activist, certified nutritionist and personal trainer. I grew up in a family of surfers and athletes so it was only destiny that I too would become one. I learned to swim before I could walk, and stood up on my first wave at the age of 5. Needless to say I was  built strong and sturdy, two things that later on in life the surf industry would tell me were wrong, not beautiful, and certainly not marketable. And a little later in life those same things that were seen as my weakness, I began to see as my biggest strengths, and ultimately became my purpose for my life.  

I began competing at the age of 14 and went on to compete on the WQS (World Qualifying Series) of Surfing for Women. Despite never fitting the size "mold" the industry asked me to be, I still finished in the top 12 on the Women’s World Qualifying Series of Surfing before I had to stop pursuing the tour from lack of financial sponsorship. I went on to begin my REAL passion I felt called to do: BREAK THOSE BOUNDARIES. I set out to promote size diversity, strength, self love and empowerment for girls and women. I didn't want them to face the same pressures and closed doors that I saw happening not only to myself, but fellow athletes. I want us to grow up in a world where capability and strength outweigh the size of our bodies. Where beauty ideas are not a one size fits all image.

 I have always believed in the power of surfing and athleticism as its where I have found my strength, my happiness, and learned to love my body - not for how it appears but for what it can do! I want to share this love and passion with other women in hopes that they too can find the beauty in their strong, capable bodies exactly as they come! We don’t t need to change the size of our bodies in order to accomplish anything; we need to change the way we think about our bodies!!

My passion is to help empower women to be the absolute strongest versions of themselves in mind, body and soul! With this passion, expertise, background, and education (EMT, CPT, CNA, CN), I host retreats and help guide women to being their most optimal selves, while creating a safe space to fully integrate and connect the mind, body and soul.
