I am a husband to the most fantastic woman ever! Dad to 4 of the coolest kids in history and Papi to the 5 greatest human beings ever to exist!!!! More than all that though, I am a follower of Jesus Christ because he took a broken, dirty and “destined for the trash” somebody like me, and gave me new life. STS is just a tiny sampling of the same thing but with old surfboards destined for the garbage and given new life as treasure.

Thanks for checking out my art! It’s been a long journey to circle back around to this “hobby” that I dabbled with as a kid, majored in while in college (cuz I just couldn’t find anything I was passionate about studying other than playing baseball) and thought had been lost to a catalogue of simple memories and doodles from my past. A trip to Hawaii several years ago inspired me and launched my exploration into this combo of two things that I love: surfing and art. I invite you to follow along with me as I dive into the enchanting world of color, a bit of whimsy and a boundless curiosity to stretch my creativity. I hope these boards give witness to a vibrant kaleidoscope of stories and praise to all that God has created around us on these recycled canvases that once rode the waves. Each brush stroke a whisper of the past. Each sculpted piece a testament to transformation and renewal, just like He offers all of us.

Come, explore this whimsical realm with me where discarded surfboards find new life, breathing tales of resilience and beauty. I pray that each creation puts in all who view them, a smile, a glimmer of hope and a nod to the magic of reinvention.

Get caught up in the dance of colors, and sail through waves of inspiration as every piece sings of innovation and joy and maybe even a little extra spark of life planted into your soul.
