  • Favourite dive site: Amadores Bay
  • Favourite part about diving: I love the shallower dives, lying on the sand with the bright sunshine shining down and watching the vivid colours of the fish come to life! I also love teaching children and helping divers overcome their nerves when taking their first fin-kicks!
  • What is your favourite fish: My favourite fish is the parrot fish! Their huge smiles and inquisitive faces never fail to amaze me and make me feel grateful that I have the best job in the world. They are the first fish I remember seeing when I completed my Discover Scuba Diving lesson and for that reason will always be my favourite.
  • Colour of scuba diving gear: It has to be pink!
