I’m Krissy Githaiga, an SSI Diving Instructor with international experience leading dive trips and working as crew across Europe and the Canary Islands. With a strong background in both teaching and guiding, I love creating safe, enjoyable, and memorable underwater adventures for divers of all levels. Along the way, I’ve built skills not only in diving instruction and safety, but also in teamwork, communication, and creating positive guest experiences.

Beyond diving, I bring a First-Class degree in Politics, Philosophy & International Relations, leadership experience from running university societies, and a passion for connecting with people from diverse cultures. I thrive in dynamic environments—whether it’s coordinating a busy dive shop, supporting research projects, or coaching young athletes.

I’m energetic, adaptable, and committed to fostering both safety and fun in every dive setting. My aim is always to help divers feel confident, comfortable, and inspired to explore the underwater world.
