"My mom and dad always pushed me into being athletic; I had so much energy as a kid, I had to get it out one way or another. I traveled around the U.S. at a young age playing soccer, my favorite sport growing up. I started surfing at age eight, and at 13, I started doing surfing competitions, which slowly evolved into a full-time surf career. Coming home to my first surfboard that my mom got me, sitting on the porch by the front door wrapped in bubble wrap, was a day that helped me be the person I am today. Surfing really frees my mind; it puts me into another world. It's so meditative."
"Competing is such a headgame. It's a high and a low: one minute, you're on top of the world, you're in first place, and it can change in one wave."
