Living on the Oregon Coast over the past two years has changed my perspective on skating and life.

The coast is isolated. It's surrounded by incredible beauty, but also by violent oceans, endless rain, relentless wind, and winters that seem to never end. Skateparks sit covered in crust, and the nearest skate scene can feel like it's a world away. I moved to the coast ready to dedicate myself to my career as a Chief Medicolegal Death Investigator, but work slowly consumed my life. My mental health suffered, and I almost stopped skating altogether. Skating has been part of my life for nearly two decades—ten years playing roller derby and eight years of park skating. Since living on the coast, street skating became my new obsession, an escape from my depression and the chaos of work. It's one of the hardest things I've ever pursued in skating, but also one of the most rewarding.

This part is about more than tricks. It's about rebuilding after depression, navigating chronic illness, accepting my body's limits, growing older and finding purpose again. It’s about finding creativity in overlooked places, joy in process, and the purpose beyond progression.

Thank you, Adam Stunk for believing in me when I couldn't believe in myself, for every mile driven, every clip filmed, every incredible photo, and every reminder to keep going. This part wouldn't exist without you. Thank you Joel Weichbrodt for the hype and filming 🤘🏻 Please like, share, and support all the work, miles, and heart that went into creating it 🖤
