Jesse Faen has been there and done that. Plain and simple.
Born to an Aussie father and a mother from California, Jesse first lived in Rockhampton, QLD, then San Francisco, then Sydney and finally settled in Narrabeen, NSW. No doubt, his early globetrotting experiences opened Jesse’s eyes.
From his tenure as an editor at Waves and later Surfing Magazine, to his 7-year role as Media Director for the ASP World Tour—he’s probably seen or heard it all. Among other titles, Jesse’s well known for being the frontman for Insight America. The guy also owns a house in Chile, a spot in OZ and lives the dream in Venice. Most amazingly, he’s managed to build a family of his own along the way.
While Jesse isn’t one to boast about having the skills of a pro surfer, it’s easy to identify him as one. An aficionado of all shapes, Jesse can be seen riding any style board at his local breaks. He’s also played a key part in
brand-building with Peligroso Tequila as well as
several community service causes in the US as well
as South America. Follow Jesse at Gypsy Surf
