Kris Hopkins is one of Salt Life’s newest team members. Kris grew up on Galveston Island, a barrier island just south of Houston, and, like his father, he grew up surfing. Kris has been a competitive surfer since he was 10 years old.
Salt Life team member Demi Landers is a free diver from sunny south Florida, where she grew up on the water. When not working full-time as Salt Life’s National Sales Manager, she spends her days diving, spearfishing, and lobstering with her husband Kristofer.
Here at Salt Life, we’re fortunate to be able to spend so much of our time on the water with friends and family. And we believe that by giving back, we’re showing gratitude for our place in the world.
