He takes pride in his craft and truly appreciates those who support him. Today, he couldn’t be happier in a role that allows him to support others while continuing to push his pro career.

Hear how he landed on Foundation Skateboards, exactly what he’s up to now, and other insights into his life and how it’s unfolding.
