Hi, I started diving over nearly 10 years ago! I've been all over the world with SCUBA diving and have met some of the best people who I am lucky to know.
What's your favourite course?
Favourite course as a student? My tech course, absolutely loved every minute of it despite the challenge.
Favourite course to teach has to be sidemount, it opens so many doors and is a great leveller no matter your build and experience.
Where's your favourite place to dive?
My favourite dive site is Wastwater in the UK, there's nowhere better for clear visibility, depth and generally taking time away from life to enjoy a dive. If I'm going abroad then it has to be Gozo, shipwrecks, caves and sunshine!
Any tips for a new diver?
My tip to new divers; enjoy the journey, it's not a race to become as qualified as possible, dive as often as you can wherever you can and try everything!
