Come explore the underwater with a community as diverse as you.
I am a Trans Woman teaching diving in beautiful Southern California. As a recreational diver for 19 years, I have had my diving certification for longer than I have had my driver license. Getting certified and living primarily in California, I have been lucky enough to experience diving in almost every condition. From Dry Suit diving in Iceland, the Cenotes of Central America, and the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, to an internship with the Whale Shark and Oceanic Research Center in Utila Honduras. I became and Instructor because LGBTQ representation in the diving community is almost non-existent and I want that to change. I want to get as many people as possible exposed to the underwater world and the joys of it.
