My love affair with diving began when I was around 15 years old snorkeling in Belize. I loved snorkeling but I saw divers down below and I remember clearly knowing- that’s what I want to do!

I got certified in college, then only went snorkeling for years because I didn’t know many other divers. Then in 2011 I re-took the Open Water course with Saralynn, became an Easy Diver and began diving as often as I possibly could. I took Advanced in 2013, then started Rescue in 2019, finishing Divemaster in 2021. I am so excited to be a PADI Divemaster and to be working with Easy Divers Memphis.

For my day job I am a speech-language pathologist, working with adults with various medical needs. I have a 6 year old daughter who loves being in the water almost as much as I do. I also enjoy running, cycling, swimming, and laying on the beach.

I’m passionate about diving, I often tell people it’s my happy place and where I feel the most peaceful, it’s my Zen. And now I’m looking forward to helping others achieve their diving goals, grow in their love and knowledge of diving, and get to experience the absolutely mesmerizing underwater world.
