"I started lessons with Andrew three months ago with some basic beginner skills, and the 10‑pack was exactly what I needed. He had a clear, structured plan for each session and taught me skills I could practice on my own and then come back to refine with him. He was flexible with where my skill level actually was, but he also challenged me in the right ways. That combination helped me move ahead much faster than I would have on my own. By the end of the 10 lessons, I felt confident playing in social games. Highly recommend him for anyone wanting real progress and solid fundamentals.

As a true waterman, my life has been defined by the ebb and flow of the ocean. Raised on the rugged shores of the West Coast, I've embraced the cold waters of the Pacific and ventured to warmer horizons, surfing the Atlantic, Caribbean, and West Indies. For the past 25 years, water sports have been my passion, complementing my career as a professional Land Surveyor, which has taken me across the globe. While chasing big waves was once my focus, these days I find joy in the simple pleasure of paddling out and connecting with the surf. Now settled on the Carolina coast, I've had the privilege of raising my sons amidst the waves, sharing with them the same love for surfing that has defined my life. Beyond anything else, my bond with the ocean remains unparalleled, second only to the love I have for my family.
