Val S. K. is a surf industry researcher from Boston, Massachusetts. After studying computing as an undergrad and graduate student at Cornell University, Val worked as a software and data engineer across many industries. Working remotely enabled her to feed her obsession with surfing by traveling the world to famous ocean breaks and newly launched surf parks.
When she’s not in the water or watching WSL, she regularly publishes research through her company Surflytics and maintains the largest free database of surf parks in the world on her website surfparkdb.com.
