Tom’s a great instructor. Nothing is more satisfying than seeing your child succeed. He’s enabled my daughter to do that with surfing through his knowledge and patience.

I always thought surfing was so cool but thought it would be so hard to learn. Tom had me riding waves my first day.

Born and raised on the shores of Babylon, NY, I've ridden the waves of the East Coast since childhood, braving cold winter swells and eagerly awaiting the summer hurricanes. As soon as possible, I embarked on surf safaris, exploring breaks from the Caribbean to California and Central America, Oregon to Oahu, and beyond. With over 45 years of experience, surfing has become more than a passion—it's a way of life. Now, as an instructor, I find immense joy in helping others catch their first wave, sharing in the exhilaration that becomes a lifelong memory. Join me in the surf, and let's make some unforgettable waves together!
