    PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor - Scuba Diving since 2018

    My wife and I returned to our home state of Florida in 2023.  We recently launched our youngest kid to the US NAVY.  At 53, I was blessed to start a new career in scuba instruction.  I enjoy the smiles of new divers as they embark on a scuba life after obtaining their first open water certification.  On weekends that I am not teaching scuba, I am drilling with the US Army Reserves.  We enjoy all of the outdoors activities the Keys has to offer including serving the local community through our church, The Beach Church of Key Largo.  

    One of my favorite dive experiences to date was watching Hammerhead sharks with our son in Bimini.
