Skateboarder Jazzmen Chavez

Skateboarder Jazzmen Chavez runs the LA Girls Skate Session. And recently she reached out to me to photograph one of their events. I liked LA Girls Skate Session right away. Since I have run a few Skatopia events I began to wonder how Jazzmen does it. How does she find the time, inspiration and money to run so many of these events? By the end of this podcast, I found the answer to my question. And that answer is that Jazzmen Chavez loves to see people get things. In other words, she likes to help others. I hope you enjoy this podcast. And if you are able I hope you can support her mission of giving to skateboarding.

“I just want to skate and help as many people along the way”
