Divers Manager Joe is originally from Michigan and grew up in Georgia. He learned to dive in Puerto Rico while serving in the US Navy in 1997. Joe immediately fell in love with the sport and began his journey as a dive professional. After owning and operating a stateside dive shop for a few years, he found there was a much better place to do that kind of work and ventured down to the Cayman Islands. He loves exploring the underwater world with the rEvo rebreather as it brings him to a Zen-like state watching the creatures of the sea live their lives as he floats by.

Frankie comes from Bungay, England, and made her first dive in 2004. She got certified so she could help collect data while working with a coral reef restoration project in Fiji. Frankie loves teaching scuba – especially seeing divers’ faces the moment they “get it” and fall in love with the underwater world. If she could, she would teach the entire world to dive just to make everyone happier.

Jucky, from Braga, Portugal, exchanged the IT world for the SCUBA world in 2012, when he traded in a desk and four walls for the deep blue sea. It was more than a career change – it was a life change. Jucky loves hanging with his bestie, Gary the Grouper, and he enjoys the thrill of flying weightlessly as he explores places most human beings don’t get to see.

Matt is originally from Portsmouth, England and we’re not exactly sure if Matt has gills, but we’re starting to suspect it. He took his first dive at just 8 years old and never really came back up—at least not for long. As soon as he was old enough, he got certified at 10, and by 18, he was already a professional diver. Since then, Matt has dived all over the world, exploring some of the best diving the planet has to offer. The ocean’s always been home for Matt, and it shows every time he’s in the water.
