Diving since: 1997

Specialization: Marine Ecology & Conservation

​Bio

​With nearly three decades of experience beneath the surface, I have dedicated my life to exploring and protecting the underwater world. My journey began in 1997, and since then, I have transitioned from a curious explorer to a committed steward of our aquatic ecosystems.

​Whether navigating the crystal-clear freshwater springs or exploring the vast biodiversity of the open ocean, my focus remains the same: conservation through education. I believe that every dive is an opportunity to witness the delicate balance of marine life and understand our role in its preservation.

​As a Divemaster, I don't just lead dives—I aim to foster a deep connection between divers and the environment. My passion is learning about and conveying my knowledge of marine ecology, ensuring that every guest walks away with a better understanding of the species they encounter and the importance of leaving no trace.
