In the end, my love for surfing helped me overcome my fear of sharks.

It's been amazing to touch people's lives.

The media can be challenging, but at the same time, without the media, I would not have been able to share my personal story. Often the media can bring beauty and encouragement to people's lives...

Strive to find things to be thankful for and just look for the good in who you are!

Besides surfing, I play tennis, volleyball, I swim, I run hills, or I do high-intensity, high-interval workouts. I'm up at 5 A.M. every day.

Being out there in the ocean, God's creation, it's like a gift He has given us to enjoy.

God created the heavens and the earth, the oceans and the waves for our enjoyment. Surfing is just my way of worshipping Him.
