I am motivated to work with brands, artists, events and entrepreneurs who share a similar aesthetic & vision.

A LITTLE MORE…
Dance was my life for a long time. It taught me many things, such as a dedication to practice in order to improve and improvise.
Studying yoga came naturally after moving to Byron Bay where I got my 800 H YTT certificate in 2018. It was my dream place where I could surf perfect waves and commit to classic longboard.
The feeling of surfing on a longboard came along with the dedication and balance practiced in ballet and yoga.
Exploring my connection with the waves on classic boards became an obsession. To me, surf is an art and expression of my own essence where I can draw my lines tuning with the rhythm of the element. Starting late on this practice, I wasn’t drawn to competition. Yet, I got my first invitational for the Vans duct tape of Joel Tudor in Cape Town in 2022 and I won it!
I’ve always had an eye for style and my own take on trends. This helps me to develop projects alongside other artists, photographers and filmmakers for both passion and commercial projects.
Please contact me if you’d like to collaborate.
This feature from Mia Le Journal goes into more detail on my background and inspirations.
SURFING
To me surf is not a performance, it’s another practice that allows my body mind & spirit to align in the present.
Winner of the Duct Tape in Cape Town in 2022, I feel excited to transmit a passion and my vision of surfing.
COLLABORATIONS
I’ve been lucky to work with some amazing brands and creatives to produce content that matches my aesthetic & taste.
I bring my creative vision to shoot brand content and campaign using the surfing and movement image.
MOVEMENT
Movement has always been part of my life. I have always loved to challenge myself while learning playfully.
This curiosity guide me in deepening that connection with myself and develop my body awareness.
