He’s a professional skateboarder who really made a name for himself when he landed that jaw-dropping 360 flip down the massive UC Davis gap—a moment that went viral after appearing in the iconic Plan B skate video titled “True.” That single trick pretty much solidified his place in skateboarding history, and since then, he’s continued to build an impressive career. Over the years, he’s gained a huge following, amassing over 1 million Instagram followers who tune in not just for his skills but for glimpses into his life off the board.

Before all the fame and recognition, life wasn’t easy. He grew up in a tough household, facing challenges most kids shouldn’t have to endure. Skateboarding became his escape, his sanctuary—a way to channel energy and emotion into something positive. Tragically, his father was killed in 2004 during a confrontation with police, a loss that deeply impacted him. Despite the hardships, he stayed focused, using skateboarding as both a passion and a purpose.

On a more personal note, he shares his life with his wife, Julia, and together they’re raising two daughters. Family plays a big role in his journey now, balancing the intensity of being a pro skater with the joys and responsibilities of fatherhood. Through it all, he’s remained grounded, always making a name for himself not just through tricks, but through resilience, authenticity, and heart.
