Goals/plans in the next 6  months? 
My plans for the next six months are to work and  train really hard so that I can perform my best for this upcoming season.  My goals are to qualify for Team USA and compete in the ISA World Junior Games this January in New Zealand, do well in the upcoming Junior Pros to try  to qualify for the World Juniors in Narrabeen, Australia, and win NSSA High  School State Championships for Laguna Beach High School. Oh, and try to  survive my Junior year of high school!

One thing/activity/hobby/idea your are passionate about outside of your sport?  Describe if possible.  I
 just love the ocean. Growing up in a  little beach town like Laguna, I've been in the water swimming, boogie  boarding, bodysurfing, and playing since I was just a little kid. I'm  passionate about preserving our beaches and oceans, and in the future I am  considering majoring in environmental studies or marine biology in college. 

What's the best thing about your lifestyle/sport? 
The best thing about surfing is how free you feel when you go for a surf.  You get to relax and unwind from the stressful life you leave behind on the  beach. The surf lifestyle is amazing because you get to travel to beautiful places and meet lots of crazy and fun people.

What do you want  more than anything else?
I want happiness for myself and everyone I  love.

Describe the ultimate trip? Or the best trip of your  life?
My ultimate trip would be to somewhere tropical with crystal  clear water just a couple close friends and good food. The best trip of my  life was Bali with Billabong this summer! Courtney, Alessa, Cat, and  I met up with the Australia girls team and traveled throughout Bali and  surfed a bunch of really fun waves.
