The underwater world opened up to me in November of 1992 when I received my PADI open water certification. Alot has happened since then, I'm in the process of obtaining my Dive Master certification. I work part-time for MASS Diving, a PADI 5 star IDC dive shop located in Natick, Massachusetts. I am a factory certified Aqualung, Apeks, Genesis, Sherwood, Scuba Pro, Poseidon and Interspiro AGA (full face mask) technician. I currently have over 400 New England and 200 "warm" water dives in over six different countries.
