I’ve been captivated by the ocean and its inhabitants since my earliest memories; it seems it was simply ingrained in my DNA. My career began in public accounting, transitioned into a period as a marine mammal trainer, and finally landed me in the investment sector. A few years ago, I abandoned the pursuit of fluctuating financial markets and relocated my family to South Florida. This move was to be nearer to the water, diving opportunities, and the marine creatures I adore. I currently live in Jupiter and have the pleasure of frequently guiding dives in the West Palm Beach area.
Living in South Florida is essentially a dream for an underwater photographer! It’s exhilarating to have the ability to dive the Blue Heron Bridge for exceptional macro-opportunities, and then switch to offshore diving with sharks, turtles, and large groupers that inhabit the area. I also relish its proximity to the Caribbean and the Bahamas. My journey in underwater photography began with a Sealife camera, but I have since upgraded to a mirrorless Sony setup for most of my shoots. Being part of the South Florida Underwater Photography Society provides a rewarding experience, connecting with others who share the same passion for capturing the ocean’s magnificent beauty and life.
