I have skateboarded since I was 12 and have excelled in all terrains. I was sponsored by my local skate shop as a kid and have never stopped skating. I can teach street, park, and some flatland freestyle. Not proficient at vert. I have taught my own kids the basics and they are now excelling every day.

I am currently in college and am incredibly patient, I am also very extraverted and personable, and I would like to share my love of skateboarding. I am very good with children and have a background in working for outdoor camps and schools.

With more than 30 years of skateboarding under my belt, starting back in the late '80s, I have built a strong foundation and passion for the sport. I've taught lessons at a local skate shop, and I love sharing what I know with skaters of all ages and skill levels. Whether giving formal lessons or just offering tips at the park, I enjoy helping others develop confidence, technique, and a real connection to skateboarding.

I???m great with kids and I feel like I???m good at knowing what they would like to learn for the most part. I feel like I know how to communicate with out sounding pushing or so called mean like some kids might find some adults to be.

I started skating at a very early age and when my mom got me a lesson from our local skate team company...I knew I also wanted to help others learn how to skate.
