About Us
Our Team
Thomas Martin – Owner & Founder
Born and raised in Northern California, currently living and loving my best life in Southern California. I try to surf every day that I can! I’m not the best surfer out there, but I have a huge passion for it, and I want to continue improving in every way that I can. I think sharing my experiences and also things I have learned along the way will help me improve even if not directly.
I did not go the typical college route like most young folks do these days. I joined the Marine Corps directly out of high school working in the Marine Air Wing as an Avionics Technician. I was stationed in Hawaii and got to spend some time based in Australia as well. I finished my enlistment and was discharged honorably in 2017 and decided to make the move back to California. I now work at SpaceX as a Manufacturing Specialist in Starship Avionics.
When I’m not surfing I am either lifting weights, running, hiking, and staying active in any way that I can. I grew up playing ice hockey, but it has been a while since I have laced up the skates. Ice time and hockey gear are just so expensive! I have also always had a huge passion for music. I love to play the guitar. A few of my favorite bands are Van Halen, Pantera, and Black Sabbath. I have several posters up of Eddie Van Halen and Dimebag Darrell in my room. To say that I’m a huge fan is an understatement.
I am rather new to the world of blogging, but I want to use this as a creative outlet to help me grow as a writer, grow as a surfer, and work on becoming an online business owner! For a more detailed look into how and why I decided to create this website check out this blog post!
