Since hopping on the surfboard at the age of six, Quincy Davis has made a major splash in the competitive surfing world. The youngest daughter in a family of avid surfers, Davis—who learned to ride the waves on the beaches of her hometown in Montauk, New York—quickly made a name for herself as one of the fiercest female surfers, beginning with her first competitive win in second grade.
Now 22, Davis has racked up an impressive resume: She earned a coveted spot on the PacSun USA surf team in 2007; she’s won first place at the Corona Pro Surf Circuit four years in a row; and in 2009, she was named as one Vanity Fair’s “New Female Stars of Surfing” (an honor she has framed in her home)—and that’s all before she graduated high school, which she finished two years early.

As she conquered the sea, Davis has also been dipping her toes in fashion, a life-long passion of hers. In 2010, Davis launched her own fashion line with Volcom, featuring originally designed swimsuits and beachwear. She’s also been photographed by legendary fashion photographer, Annie Leibowitz, and has been sought after by the likes of Vogue and yours truly for her style, beauty, and health tips.
In between being one with the ocean and working on her next collaboration, Davis caught up with us to answer all our burning questions, like what her most annoying pet peeve is and who she would want to come back as in another life. (Hint: It’s Beyonce-related.)
