I am from a small town in South Auckland called Waiuku.<br \/>\nI started diving beginning of 2019 where I finished at Rescue Diver at Auckland Scuba.&nbsp;&nbsp;I then went travelling for 6 months to then return to do my Instructor Development Course.&nbsp;&nbsp;I qualified as an instructor in June 2020. I then helped assist&nbsp; with courses at Auckland Scuba between lifeguarding at the local pool and music teaching before starting work here at Dive HQ.<\/p>\n<p>During my break between studying I participated in camp America working as a boat driver\/lifeguard for 3 months teaching; sailing, wake boarding, taking kids banana boating\u2026in Minnesota. I then travelled around the USA for a month. My love for outdoors grew when I was 16 where I went on a world challenge trip backpacking around Nicaragua and Costa Rica for a month. Since then any day off I get has been spent hiking, swimming or exploring with mates.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/am3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-2504 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/am3-300x195.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"354\" height=\"230\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/am3-300x195.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/am3.jpg 321w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 354px) 100vw, 354px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/AM-2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2503 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/AM-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"233\" height=\"231\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/AM-2.jpg 233w, https:\/\/www.diveski.co.nz\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/AM-2-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 233px) 100vw, 233px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I have been on multiple wreck dives Including the Canterbury, Waikato and Rainbow warrior.
