Diving has been my lifelong passion and profession for nearly two decades. From teaching scuba to planning extraordinary underwater adventures, I’ve dedicated my career to making diving dreams a reality. I currently live in Cleveland, Ohio, with my family, having moved here 10 years ago to work at a dive shop. While there, I began organizing and leading dive trips, traveling with groups to over 20 countries and exploring some of the world’s most breathtaking underwater destinations. 

Throughout my career, I’ve led 6-12 trips annually with groups ranging from four to fifty divers, including everything from beginner divers experiencing their first plunge to seasoned adventurers checking off bucket-list locations. My expertise spans the Caribbean—where I spent four years living in the Bahamas and eight in the Cayman Islands—as well as more distant destinations like Fiji, the Philippines, Galápagos, and Socorro. 

What sets me apart as a travel advisor is my belief in planning trips the way I’d want to experience them myself. I focus on destinations that maximize your time, allowing you to dive at premium sites while also leaving room for other activities like hiking, kayaking, birdwatching, waterfall tours, or simply relaxing on a beautiful beach. I specialize in crafting itineraries for: 

• Adult scuba divers new to the sport and eager to explore.
• Families with both divers and non-divers, ensuring everyone has an unforgettable vacation.
• Dive clubs looking for accommodations and experiences tailored to their entire group.
• Seasoned divers ready to explore bucket-list destinations worldwide.
• Adventurers who want thrills both above and below the water.
• All-inclusive travelers seeking stress-free, expertly planned vacations.
• As a dive professional, I understand the challenges of balancing diving with other activities and the importance of choosing locations where diving is a convenience— not an all-day ordeal for just one short dive. My goal is to make vacations easy, so you can focus on relaxing and enjoying your time in and out of the water. 

Over the years, I’ve built a reputation for tackling the unexpected. From late flights to rough weather, I’ve faced countless travel challenges and always find creative solutions to keep trips running smoothly. When my group was stranded in the Maldives during the early days of COVID in 2020, I worked with the U.S. Embassy to arrange flights home while ensuring we made the most of our extended stay aboard a liveaboard dive boat. These experiences have taught me how to adapt and ensure my clients have the best possible experience, no matter the circumstances. 

When I’m not planning or leading dive trips, I’m spending time with my daughter, tending to my vast collection of succulents and houseplants, or working on my underwater photography. I take pride in capturing the beauty of marine life and sharing it with my groups. 

Whether you’re a new diver, an experienced one, or traveling with family, I’d love to help you plan your dream diving adventure. Let’s create a trip that inspires you both above and below the surface!
