An avid outdoorsman Mike’s passion for scuba diving began at an early age.  His love of the freedom and exhilaration he feels when underwater has led him to pursue his diving career with fervor and he dives as often as possible.

He has been in many diverse dive situations, from the tank experience at DiveQuest in Walt Disney World to the 140ft dive to the Arundo off the Manasquan coast.  He also has dived Grand Cayman, Key West, and various wrecks off North Carolina, to name a few. 

During the dive season Mike spends most weekends participating in local dive charters off New Jersey, Brooklyn, and Long Island.  Mike enjoys decompression diving more than recreational diving, as this enables him to achieve the ultimate dive experience.

 Knowing that this was a sport he would love right from the beginning he invested in any and all gear he could as soon as he began his first class.  He has fervently continued his education and certifications.  In the four years since that first class, to date, he has completed the following; advanced open water; rescue; dry suit; most recently a 4:1 technical diving program.  He is also a trained certified regulator and equipment repair technician. 

Mike joined Treasure Cove in 2008 after attending a gas blending program with R.J..  His previous experience at a local dive shop and his passion for the sport led R.J. to bring him on as part of the Treasure Cove Team.
