Inspired by Corals
Welcome, fellow ocean lover. My mission is simple: to help you see the underwater world with new eyes.
This is a place for divers and coral enthusiasts to unlock a new level in diving, uncover the secrets of coral’s rich biodiversity, and gain a newfound sense of wonder for the reef.
Don’t know where to start? Learn to identify corals from the Caribbean, read some travel stories, or check out my photo gallery.

I’m honored to be a co-founder and partner with Ocean Gardener, a coral restoration NGO based in Bali, Indonesia.
I’m incredibly proud that the organization uses my educational coral reef videos to inspire young Indonesian marine biologists and scuba divers about the beauty and diversity of corals.
