Hi, everybody. I've never posted my intro, so here goes. My name is Tripp and I am an anesthesiologist here in San Antonio. I have always wanted to learn to scuba-dive. In medical school I took a day course during a spring-break trip to St. Croix and did two shore dives, one to a plane wreck, and one to a wall. It was amazing, but with all of the education and residency ahead of me, I never got certified.
Last year, my daughter, son, and I became PADI certified through Dive World Thousand Oaks here in San Antonio prior to a trip to Hawaii. We did boat dives off Maui with Ed Robinson, off Kauai with Fathom Five, and off Waikiki with Kaimana. I was hooked. I have since gotten my Advanced Open Water, Nitrox, Rescue, and Boat Diving courses. I am working on my PADI Master Diver and am going on a Live-aboard trip next summer to the Galápagos Islands. I can't wait! Glad to be here at ScubaBoard!
