CURRENT MISSION

Explore Australia and New Zealand (again), hopefully do some bodysurfing, spearfishing, and diving.

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy with roots in NZ and the USA. I teach high school art and am lucky to have two beautiful daughters.

PHILOSOPHY

Spend as much time in or at the ocean. Try to be a great dad to my kids and be a supportive and encouraging adult to the young people I coach and teach. Make the world more beautiful!
