Occupation:
Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA)

Certification Agencies:

Dive History:
I have been diving since 1970 when I first certified through YMCA! In the years since I think I have dived just about every diveable lake in Texas as well as Maui, Cozumel (more times than I can count!), Grand Cayman, Roatan, Aruba, Cancun, Akumal, Grenada, and Barbados.
I moved to Brownwood in 2007, and in the process lost all of my old dive buddies!. I would welcome the chance to connect with any divers near or far that I could dive with on an ongoing status. My wife does not dive but is content to lay on the beach sipping drinks with little umbrellas in them while I go pursue my passion of diving! LOL
I look forward to hearing from any divers. Near or far, young or old!

Bare 3/2 Progressive wetsuit (with glued-on Dive Rite thigh pocket). Scuba Pro Jet fins. Lights are UK Light Cannon for primary and Gulftex Photon for back-up. I dive in a Hogarthian or DIR fashion.
