Hey Everyone, I’m Taj. I’m 20 and from Gold Coast, Australia. At the age of 10, my family made a bold decision—we sold most of our belongings, closed my parents’ yoga wheel business, and set sail on a six-month adventure aboard a worn-out sailboat. (I don’t know how the boat was still floating, but thankfully, my dad is good at fixing things. Otherwise, that boat would have been on the ocean floor a long time ago.)Little did we know that this adventure would stretch into almost 11 years, taking us across oceans and continents. We started on the east coast of Australia, then explored a large part of Asia, spending our days scuba diving, spearfishing, surfing, and adventuring—just enjoying life

Then, we decided to take a leap. We left our pretty run-down boat, which had definitely served us well but had seen better days, and bought a boat in San Diego—sight unseen—planning to fix it up. Thinking we’d have it ready in a couple of months, we quickly learned otherwise. Nearly two years later, after having our boat hauled out in a boatyard in the Mexican desert, we finally got it ocean-ready.

Now, we’re back in the water, currently sailing the Sea of Cortez in Mexico, making our way down the coast to Panama, then through the canal to the Caribbean—ready for plenty more adventures to come.

Around the age of 12, I discovered my passion for design and business. I started commissioning t-shirt designs, logos, and paintings for the sailing community, with help from my family’s YouTube channel. This led me to run a successful little freelancing business while we adventured across the globe.

Now, nearly seven years later, as I continue to grow my business and develop my artistic style, my focus has shifted toward collaborating with brands, designing merch for sailing YouTubers, and creating mementos for couples and families who live or have lived on the ocean—encapsulating their memories in a piece of art.
