“Wavve was born from a deeply personal experience. When I was younger, my dad was swept out to sea by a rip current while bodyboarding. After drifting for hours, he was eventually found and rescued by surfers. That moment stayed with me, making me realize how important it is to get help quickly in an emergency. I founded Wavve to create a system that connects sea users and sportspeople to emergency services—instantly sharing their real-time location so rescuers can reach them fast when every second counts.”

“I have always enjoyed being outdoors—whether exploring beaches, hiking or travelling the world. But no matter how experienced you are, nature is unpredictable, and emergencies can happen. The statistics speak for themselves; there is no reliable way for people in distress to quickly share their location and get help when they need it most. That’s why I’m passionate about Wavve—we’re creating a solution that ensures adventurers, explorers, and sea users can always be found in an emergency.”
