Update

It has been a while since I have posted anything on a blog, life has been busy.  I would like to get things started again by doing some dive gear reviews and dive site reviews.  If you are a product manufacturer, dive site owner, charter operator, etc. feel free to contact me and I will get a review completed for you.  A little background on my diving career.  I never really had an interest to dive, always thought that it was too dangerous, etc.  One day while working at the fire department my Chief approached me and asked if I would be interested in taking a dive class as our department was going to start a dive team to supplement our county’s dive team.  I said sure, I’ll take the class.  I remember having issues with popping to the surface while doing pool sessions during the class as I was always used to being able to “nose” breathe.  I got this corrected and fell in love with the sport.  I have since then completed my Advanced Open Water, Nitrox, ERD I Diver Technician, ERD II Diver Technician, Cavern, Cave, and Dive Guide.  This is all coupled with numerous fire department and rescue classes with many hours of training over the 16 years as a firefighter.  I am currently working on my Dive Master and Dive Control Specialist courses.  I have had the pleasure of diving with Scuba Diving Magazine’s Scuba Lab crew to test out regulators in 2013 and was pictured in the magazine.  I look forward to having the opportunity to take part in this again this year.
