Master Instructor

Year of Professional Certification: 2008

PADI Level: Master Instructor

About Me: I’m a cave diver, scientific diver (archaeology), technical diver, and recreational diver. Unfortunately, I became a diver too late in life (mid 40s). I’m drawn to teaching the more advanced classes and putting together custom training plans to give divers the skills to achieve their scuba dreams, no matter how ambitious they might be. I like personalized individual and small-group instruction and like leading “adventure travel” dive trips. On my personal learning radar are full-face mask and cave dive propulsion vehicles. For future dive destinations, I’d like to make it to Banco Chinchorro off the southern Caribbean coast of Mexico.

Favorite Dive Destination: Under the Yucatan Peninsula

Favorite Dive Gear: Aqualung Axiom BCD: Incredible fit (Wrapture harness), good trim, strong metal D-rings.
