Ken’s first dive was when he lived in Grand Cayman during fifth grade. After his family moved back to the states, he earned certification as a NAUI Junior Diver at “Scubacamp”. He started cave diving in 1994 and volunteered his efforts throughout the late 90s with the NACD, first on the Science Committee and later as the Accident Analysis committee chair, and the WKPP. During that time, he was involved with exploration projects in North Florida and Mexico.
After going back to school in 2001, Ken took a break from cave diving, but resumed in 2011. Since then, he has been involved with exploration in Florida and Belize.
Although he plans to someday move to an island in the Caribbean, he currently works as the Director of Information Technology for the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at the University of Florida.
He tries not to take himself too seriously.
