Isla Verde

The Philippines is the center of the center of marine biodiversity in the world. It’s in the Verde Island Passage to be exact, and the community of Isla Verde need our support. Work with me to provide livelihood opportunities!

That was the best Mental Health talk that I have ever attended!!! Thank you for being generous and brave in sharing your own personal experience. So heart warming, enlightening and inspiring.

“The panel session that you conducted, “Women TekDiving Challenges” was, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the very best panel sessions that I’ve ever seen, not only at ADEX but elsewhere. The questions that you put and your control of the session were admirable.”

— David Strike, former Field editor Asian Diver Magazine

“I have watched and listened to you more than you know, and am impressed with how you not only study your speakers beforehand, but at how you listen to your panelists and segue with relevance and without effort. It is my honor to have you intro and moderate on all my talks. All that comes from sincerity, and any convention is lucky to have a shining gem as you.”
