Since first descending beneath the waves in 2012, I’ve been captivated by the quiet beauty, mystery, and adventure of the underwater world. What began as a personal passion quickly grew into a lifelong commitment to sharing the ocean’s wonders with others.

In 2017, I became an instructor, combining my love for diving with a deep dedication to teaching. Guiding students through their first breaths underwater — and watching their confidence bloom — is what drives me every day. My approach is patient, safety-focused, and full of the same excitement I felt on my very first dive.

Beyond teaching, I’m an avid underwater photographer. Through my lens, I aim to capture not just marine life, but the feeling of being fully immersed in another world — from the delicate sway of coral gardens to the playful curiosity of a passing turtle.

Whether I’m leading a dive, teaching a new skill, or framing the perfect shot, I’m always inspired by the ocean’s ability to connect us, challenge us, and remind us of the beauty worth protecting.
