Why I Dive: Working in the technology field I’m always on the go and I have always found the ocean to be centering for me. The power and grace the ocean displays are both humbling and exciting. Diving allows me to immerse myself in a completely different space bringing peace to both my mind and my body.
Why I Instruct: I decided to become an instructor when I saw that someone who worked so hard to become a diver almost wasn’t because there were not enough instructors to teach everyone. It was at that point to take the next step and become an instructor. I soon learned that I really enjoyed teaching and found a new way to share the ocean that I love so much.
If I Could Dive Anywhere: I look forward to the day I get to dive Antarctica, Iceland, or Scapa Flow.
My Favorite Type of Diving: Deep Diving, Night Diving(Fluro), CCR Diving, Any kind of diving really.
I’m always looking to learn new things and meet new people; scuba diving provides that in so many different ways for me and I want to share that with as many people as I can.
