Dive History:
Bulk has been off my own boats in the Gulf of Mexico (oil platforms usually) 35-70 miles off the Louisiana coast, love spearfishing and photo/video. Several Flower Gardens, Stetson Bank visits, Many dives on the FL panhandle and a few springs. Some light commercial work (shallow, zero vis site sweeps to locate obstructions and remove pipes). San Diego beach dives, several of the usual carribean stops (Bonaire is my favorite), Catalina Island Kelp last February (will definitely go back), various inland lakes, a few dives in my sister's pool (I made it to the bottom and didn't get narced, not one bit), and a couple of cool sites on the other side of the No Trespassing signs (back in college of course).
