I believe that "good divers are always learning" and toward that end I continue to challenge myself to increase my knowledge about diving and the aquatic environment. In my years of diving and instruction I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most outstanding divers and diving educators in the world- experience which I hope to be able to pass on to you, my students and fellow divers. Over the years my travels have allowed me to gain experience in a wide variety of environments, ranging from the submerged caves of Florida and Mexico to the warm waters of South Florida, the Carribean and the West Pacific, to the temperate waters of the Northern Gulf Coast and the Mid-Atlantic. I have yet to find a diving environment that failed to excite my desire to challenge myself and learn more about our wide, wide world!
