Marcus

Marcus has been a NAUI Scuba Instructor since 2017 and is currently working on becoming an Instructor Trainer. He is also a certified NAUI Rebreather Diver. Marcus began diving while stationed in California, serving in the Marine Corps.  After his honorable discharge, he moved to Arizona where he furthered his diving education with Inland Water Divers. Marcus’ students appreciate his calm, firm approach to teaching. He makes it very clear to every one of his students that he will never give up on them despite their challenges during training. His style of training demands safety and excellence and instills confidence, which helps to create safe and competent divers.

In 2018, Marcus was awarded a Lifesaving Award for actions taken to save another diver who experienced unforeseen challenges during a dive. Marcus went above and beyond, risking his own life, to save another. His actions that day will never be forgotten. If you ask him about this, he will gladly tell you the story! He enjoys sharing this story because it’s one of the many reasons why SAFETY is always FIRST and this allows him to explain why all of the safety measures and precautions we take are so critically important.

Marcus also loves to travel and enjoys leading dive trips around the world! Blackbeard’s Bahamas is one of his favorite destinations as well! Aye, bet yer not suprised Matey!

Diana has been a NAUI Scuba Instructor since 2023. Diana began scuba diving with Inland Water divers in 2020.  She has always loved the water and scuba diving quickly became a passion. She went through Open Water and Advanced courses early on to experience a Large Animal Liveaboard Dive Trip, then continued training almost non-stop. Diana loves to teach and to share to freedom and magic of scuba diving with her students. She has excellent role models to look up to, and continue to learn from, as she grows into a seasoned instructor. Currently, her favorite class to teach is Rescue. She appreciates the mental and physical challenge is takes to complete this course, and as an RN, she loves to share her knowledge of First Aid and Emergency Management related to Scuba Diving.

Scuba diving was how Diana discovered travel and she has now traveled to numerous locations including Aggressor Liveaboards to the Socorro Islands, approximately 250 miles south of Cabo San Lucas, and to Turks and Caicos. However, her favorite destination for 4 years running has been Blackbeard’s Liveaboard in the Bahamas! Who doesn’t love a Salty Pirate Adventure! This year, Diana will be leading our Fossil Diving trip and our annual Blackbeard’s trip! Join her for fun and adventure in Scuba Diving!
