Diving Biography
As long as I can remember I have had an affinity to water. Therefore I learned to swim and snorkel at a very young age. To realize my dream – become a SCUBA diver – I had to wait until I turned 22 years old. From then on nothing could stop me anymore and I spent as much time as possible in the water. Since 2012 I have invested all my time, energy and money in learning and teaching Sidemounting.
It is a lifestyle – you will never see me again with tanks on my back.
I was gifted and had the chance to dive with, learn from and even live with some extraordinary diving instructors:
