Scott is the founder of Bluewater Travel. Scott's areas of expertise include some of our top dive destinations like Indonesia, Mexico, Philippines, Fiji, Galapagos, French Polynesia and the United States.

Scott is also the founder of the Underwater Photography Guide and Bluewater Photo. What started out as a small project has grown to a point where it is starting to interfere with Scott's sleep. When it interferes with his diving, then it will be a problem.

Scott lives in California.If possible he tries to get out diving each week with some of the other members of the staff. 

 An avid marine naturalist, Scott is the author of the Field Guide to Southern California Marine Life. He was the LAUPS photographer of the year for 2009, and his photos have appeared in magazines, coffee table & marine life books, museums, galleries and aquariums throughout California. He enjoys teaching photography underwater and in workshops.
