Eric’s experience in the diving industry began in 2003 when he took PADI’s Open Water diver course with Regional
Scuba. Eric loved diving so much that he began to take as many classes as possible to gain knowledge and experience to become
a better diver. In 2004 Eric joined the staff at Regional Scuba to further his knowledge of the dive industry and share his
love of scuba diving with others. Eric has even gotten his older brother Bill into diving.

in Florida. He also has experience with Extended Range Diving through the Professional Scuba Association International (PSAI).
