I am a marine biologist and enthusiast of all things oceanic. Whether snorkeling, diving, surfing, or sailing, I'm always excited to get in the water. I learned to dive in the beautiful waters of a Fijian lagoon, on Gau Island. Since then, my diving has taken me from cenotes in the Mexican Riviera Maya to the frigid waters off Rhode Island. I've found that no matter where you dive, there exists a separate and fascinating universe just under the surface.

Most people will tell you that unicorns don’t exist; but, as is so often the case, once you sink beneath the surface of the ocean, what you know on land no longer applies.
Sometimes the most interesting creatures are hiding in plain sight. The robust ghost pipefish is a beautiful master of disguise.
