About Candidate
I am a bilingual active PADI instructor with divemaster experience in both the Caribbean and Southeast Asia, now seeking an instructor role where I can continue to share my passion for the ocean and marine education. I have extensive administrative experience and am a capable salesperson, and after a year working on superyachts I am comfortable with boat operations. I am a quick learner with an energetic attitude and a strong work ethic. I have worked in challenging conditions with divers of all ages, and am confident in my abilities to safely manage large groups underwater. I look forward to becoming a valuable member of your team and putting smiles on divers’ faces!
