Biography

Being on the water is all I know. With extensive experience as a scuba diving instructor, and crewmember on local dive boats I understand teaching in a hands on setting, particularly with a strong emphasis of safety on the water. As a CFCC Marine Technology graduate I can relate to the needs of our students. Following graduation I spent 4 years working offshore as a Navigator aboard a seismic survey vessel before coming back to teach at CFCC. Sharing my experiences with our students brings great fulfilment to my life.
