Instructor

Sam is a current SSI Open Water Instructor and new to the North Florida area. Diving since 2021 and learning in Puget Sound, WA. He has been diving the west coast from Vancouver Island to San Diego. After leaving the cold frozen waters of the Pacific Northwest and tired of huffing glue from fixing dry suits, he journeyed to the Florida Keys to instruct and dive for a year. Since then, he has decided to make the caves and springs of North Florida his home. Sam is always very passionate about teaching and guiding new divers to where they want to be in terms of skill set and comfort in our unique underwater environment. Also constantly wanting to learn more for himself so he may progress in his diving endeavors. “When one man, for whatever reason, has the opportunity to lead an extraordinary life, he has no right to keep it for himself” Jacques Cousteau.
