Patrick first became a certified diver in 1977 through the National Association of Underwater Instructors. Since then, his diving experience has taken him from the coast of his native Southern California to the Caribbean, Mexico, Bora Bora and finally to Hawaii. His main reason for wanting to teach people to dive is "to see that grin on their faces when they first realize that they love SCUBA diving".
Main Diving Influences: Jacques Yves-Cousteau, Henry S. Alvarez (NAUI Instructor #4399), Mike Nelson (aka Lloyd Bridges) and all the divers I've had the pleasure to meet and dive with over the years!

Dylan was making himself at home in the Pacific Ocean before he was walking. An avid freediver by age 7, he got certified to SCUBA dive as soon as he was able and has been doing it ever since. When the time came for college, he moved to Hawaii and became a dive professional. After graduating from the University of Hawaii with a BS in Microbiology (we don't call him the professor for nothing) he has been honing his dive skills as an instructor trainer and technical instructor.

Roy
NAUI Instructor
We asked Roy to write a blurb for the website but understand why he hasn't had time lately. Besides his day job as a US Marine, he is also training to compete in a trialthalon. Despite having the workload of three people, Roy is always happy to talk story or share helpful dive tips.
