Stay Salty!
About the host, Kieran Anderson:
Kieran Anderson was raised in sunny southern California where the waves are consistent and the ocean is vast. Growing up just down the street from the California coastline, Kieran took up surfing at a young age. Throughout his childhood, it was second nature for him to grab his board and head out to the ocean almost every single day. Later in life, Kieran became a professional surfer, living out his childhood dream. Kieran is not only a surfer, but is also an avid waterman. He enjoys diving and fishing in his spare time. Kieran has traveled all over the world chasing big waves, and along the way has met a lot of really awesome people who share his passion for the ocean. Kieran joined team Salt Life in 2017 and never looked back. The ocean is Kieran’s sanctuary, and he’s ready to start talking about it.
