Professional Background

With over two decades of operational experience in heavy-weather maritime environments of the Pacific Northwest — widely recognized for some of the most challenging bar and surf conditions in North America — and qualification as a United States Coast Guard Surfman, SurfHOG LLC is built on real-world performance demands.

That operational experience was later paired with formal training system development responsibilities at the National Motor Lifeboat School, where structured qualification frameworks, curriculum development, and instructor standards were designed and delivered to professional operators.

SurfHOG LLC operates with a commitment to measurable competence, structured standards, and long-term training sustainability — ensuring that operational capability is built on documented, defensible performance criteria.
