I was first PADI certified in 2002 while on vacation in Maui.  Over the next two years I participated in many additional training sessions and completed over 400 dives and became qualified as a PADI  Master Scuba Diver and PADI Dive Master.  In 2004 I decided that I would become a PADI instructor and received my qualification.  Since then I have upgraded my instructing capabilities and obtained my PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer certification.  I am qualified to teach virtually all PADI courses up to Dive Master and most Specialty Courses. I have travelled and dived in our local quarries, off the coast of New Jersey, many location in the Caribean and throughout Asia.  I have continued to build upon my own personal learning and have received qualification in Gas Blending and Closed Circuit Rebreathers.  I am planning to complete additional training in the near future that will allow me to dive in Caves and use Trimix for deep wreck dives.  I prefer the warm waters and biodiversity of Asia but you can find me most Wednesday nights at Bainbridge, some Thursdays at Willow and a variety of locations on the weekend doing some kind of dive activity.

I became a certified diver in November 2002, since that point all my diving has been local, cold water diving.  Places I frequent are New Jersey, North Carolina, New York, Delaware and Maryland.  The farthest north I've been is Canada on the St. Lawrence.  I also dive quite a bit at Bainbridge, Willow, and Dutch Springs.  Over the summer you can find me at Bainbridge with my son who is currently learning to snorkel.  I enjoy diving for the technical experience which has led to becoming certified in decompression diving and closed circuit rebreathers. You can e-mail me here.
