Divemaster
Year of Professional Certification: 2024
PADI Level: Divemaster
About Me: I've been a scuba diver for 23+ years, and am grateful to get to dive all over the world regularly for my job as a marine scientist. I first fell in love with coral reefs snorkeling in the USVI with my family, and the rest is history! I study the impact of climate change on coral reefs, and work regularly on the reefs in the Galapagos, Republic of Kiribati, and Republic of the Marshall Islands. After working as a scientific diver for many years, I was thrilled to become a PADI professional in 2024 and join the Dive Shop team. I enjoy helping in the pool and at Lake Pleasant!
