Kayak fishing became my passion in 2016 after spending a day chasing redfish along the intercoastal waterway in a Hobie Outback rented from Time Out Sports in Mt. Pleasant, SC. After spending a few years traveling with my husband competing in kayak tournaments I decided to transition my professional career to the fishing industry. I co-founded the Women's Fishing Federation in 2019; a nonprofit organization that teaches fishing skills through annual retreats held in various areas around the country. In 2021 I started Reel Tournament Management, a one-stop shop for all the “behind the scenes” tournament needs.
