I started boating and stand-up jet skiing when I was 11 years old. I was hooked on the water immediately. At 12, my grandfather showed me the ropes on a 12-foot Novurania RIB. Once I mastered that, I was allowed to take out the classic 13-foot Boston Whaler. By 14, I was taking our 42' boat out alone in Pine Creek Bay to practice my docking and boat-handling skills. From that point on, I was driving boats from Holland to Drummond Island quite frequently.

In college, I got my first job in the boating industry working as the shipping manager at a large dealership. I didn't care what I was doing because it was related to boats, and I knew I wanted to be in the boating industry. In that role, I would sometimes get called away to drive customers' boats, teach them water sports, and test new products.

I love everything about the water, from driving boats in the summer to wake surfing on Christmas Day. If it's on the water, sign me up!
