Favorite dive destination:  North Carolina.  I love diving the wrecks there, and I am almost always accompanied by tons of sharks!

Favorite class to teach:  My favorite class to teach is Peak Performance Buoyancy and the favorite class I’ve taken is Technical Sidemount.

I have been passionate about scuba diving since the first time I put on the gear in a Discover Scuba experience.  I try to share this passion with fellow divers and students, in hopes that they also will share that passion.  When I’m not teaching, I’m off on some dive trip to North Carolina, Bonaire, Florida, or even in an old lead mine in Missouri!

Surprising fact: I practiced martial arts for 14 and am even in the World Martial Artist Hall of Fame in Korea.
