Diving First Aid for Professional Divers
I began diving many years ago in dark, swift rivers and cold, deep quarries. As much as I loved that, I have a soft spot for the warm Caribbean waters and coral reef diving!
I also served as a Lieutenant with a dive rescue group in Tennessee for a bit, and have worked in zoos and aquariums for most of my career. Long story short, I love the water, animals, and people and will give you great and safe instruction during your Scuba journey!.
