I started skateboarding in Germany in 1989, my parents were in the military so we moved alot, which meant always making new friends. Skateboardring was the constent and helped develop my social skills and life values. In 2004 I moved to Portland after a skateboard trip and started a career in the Hotel Industry. I realized the most rewarding job I ever had was teaching skateboarding, and have been working with Skateboarding ever since.
Skateboarding is a life tool, it teaches us know matter how hard we fall, we get back up. It builds and develops character and defines community.
