Then, directly after, I became a coach and gave private lessons for the following three years. I have been giving private lessons on and off since October 2021 while I have focused on my professional career. I want to continue to help teach children how to be confident and enjoy the water. I love water sports and surfing, so its very important to me to pass it along and have more people playing in the water. My personality is outgoing and energetic. I want everything in life to be fun, so the lesson I will give is fun while very focused to challenge the student.
