My love of SCUBA has been a 28 year addiction that started when I was in high school. The last 18 years I have been teaching SSI and PADI SCUBA courses at UCSD. I have dove many parts of the California coast and channel islands. We are grateful to have been able to travel to many exciting places. The list has included Baja, Hawaii, Fiji, Japan, Belize, Bahamas, and Indonesia. I met my wife to be when she took a SCUBA class from me in January of 1991. We were engaged in Fiji in 1994 and married in 1995.
