I have been a professional diver for 25 years, with over 10,000 dives under my belt. 150+ trips to Socorro and its sister islands in the Revillagigedo archipelago spanning 15 years make me an old salt. I used to regularly work as a dive guide on the Nautilus liveaboards. With my age and experience, I prefer to be more independent and not locked in to one project. I like doing customized trips and going to different destinations.
In recent years I have been working as a private dive guide on private yachts, assisting professional underwater photographers and videographers on private trips, or leading my own small group of recreational divers on private dive charters. It keeps my work more interesting and, at the same time, more challenging. Being in this environment, away from the crowd, while making safety a priority is what I would like you to experience.
My specialty is mainly big animals: sharks, whales and dolphins. Though I am equally fascinated by small critters and fish behavior in general.
