SURFER

Surfing has been a significant part of my life since I was little, shaping my connection with the ocean and influencing my perspective on both nature and community. From the moment I paddled out on a small foam board, I was captivated by the rhythm of the waves and the thrill of gliding across the water. Every session holds a unique experience, whether it's the first light of dawn illuminating the sea or the camaraderie shared with fellow surfers waiting for the perfect swell. Surfing is not just a sport for me; it's a way of life that teaches resilience, patience, and respect for the environment. As I continue to ride the waves, I cherish the freedom it brings and the lifelong friendships forged through our shared passion.

Hammer Surf School Instructors 2025

Summer of 2017 to 2025

During the summers of 2024 and 2025, I worked as a surf instructor allowing me to deepen my connection with the ocean and share my passion with others. Guiding beginners through their first rides and helping more experienced surfers refine their technique was rewarding and enriching. Each day brought new challenges and moments of joy, from witnessing a student's breakthrough to enjoying the peaceful early mornings by the shore. This experience reinforced the values surfing has always taught me—resilience, patience, and respect for nature—while fostering a strong sense of community among those drawn to the waves.
