9 to 5: Champion surfer

Street cred: Montauk, born and raised

Prodigal Daughter: “My whole family is into surfing, and growing up I was like, ‘I’m not going to be a surfer like you.’ But when I was seven, my brother got me into it, and once I started, I never really stopped.”

First Job: “When I was 12, Volcom saw me surfing in Puerto Rico and signed me as a sponsor. I wear their clothes and bikinis every day, and I’ll be in their upcoming ad campaigns.”

Summer Steez: “I pretty much wear a bikini all day, every day. I have hundreds of them.”

Locals Only: “I hate going to Ditch Plains beach at midday. It’s like a zoo down there!”

Family Matters: “I always hang out at Happy Bowls, my brother Tyler and my mom’s açai bar in Montauk.”

Frequent Flyer: “This year alone I was in Australia, Tahiti, New Zealand, and Puerto Rico. I also spend a lot of time in Oahu at my friend Coco Ho’s house.”
