She’s filmed new wrecks, cave exploration and even diving cage-less with great white sharks. Her experience working in remote locations around the world and artistically capturing extreme environments has earned her a reputation of being able to produce quality work in tough situations.

She’s constantly pushing the limits of technology and trying new creative techniques to capture the beauty of the underwater world.

She has been an Instructor for over 2 decades and is currently an active TDI Mixed Gas Rebreather Instructor. In her spare time, she’s participated in dozens of exploration projects around the world which earned her a place as a Fellow in the Explorers Club and in 2013 she was inducted into the Women Divers Hall of Fame.
