As a kid, it was a dream to be able to surf professionally.

I' ve been surfing professionally for 12 years, and one of the major players that helped me reach my goal of surfing for a living was John Keppler.

Keppler's hard work helped launch me into the media lime light as an amueter through magazines such as Wave Action and other nation wide surf publications.

Thanks keppler, you're the man!
