WESTON BARNES

Orange County, CA

Athlete, Outsider

Raised in Laguna Beach, CA, Wes grew up with a passion and dedication for the sport of volleyball. While recovering from a volleyball related concussion at Pepperdine University, Wes began to peel back the layers of himself, the collective mental health of athletes, and the power of a strong community. This journey formed a calling: to create events and experiences where our bonds as a community can grow and deepen. 

His pursuits include freediving, backpacking, and swimming. Next time you see him ask him to take you for a journey amongst Laguna's kelp forests... I guarantee he will not hesitate.
