about us

Pool Boy started with $300 and an idea.

During my sophomore year at the College of Charleston, I saw an opportunity to create swimwear that felt different, pieces that were elevated, flattering, and thoughtfully designed, with a clear point of view you couldn't find anywhere else.

After working all summer and saving every dollar I could, I invested in my first production run: the Summer Nights Set.

What began as a small launch quickly grew into something much bigger than I ever imagined. Since then, Pool Boy has grown into a community-driven swimwear brand with wholesale partnerships and pop-ups across the country. Most importantly, Pool Boy has a loyal customer base that continues to inspire every collection.

Every piece is hand-designed by me in Charleston, South Carolina, with a focus on timeless silhouettes, flattering fits, and effortless style.

I'm incredibly grateful for everyone who has supported Pool Boy from the beginning, and I'm so excited to continue building the brand and sharing what's next.
