About the Owner:  Jessica Pickering purchased Maui Diving July 2017 after the original owner of 28 years decided to retire to another tropical paradise called Florida. Jessica spent her time traveling the world and scuba diving while simultaneously working on the marketing and graphic design business she owned, Creative Soup, since she was 18 years old.  On one of these adventures in Fiji she met her husband Steven and they started a life together in San Diego. San Diego was a bit too cold for that island boy, so she went searching for a place that would still feel like home for him and not be too far away from family in California. While looking on the PADI classifieds for instructor jobs for Steven, she found a “Dive Shop For Sale” listing and called the number in the classifieds. Two months later she had moved to Maui, and 6 weeks after that the shop was hers. “Its been a whirlwind of life getting to this point, but I know that this is where we’re meant to be. Things have fallen in place and the business is flourishing with the new ideas and attention to detail I’ve brought with me”, says Jessica.

PADI Course Director Chris has received his degrees in Marine Biology and loves the oceans and teaching new stewards of our marine environment. Chris originally certified as a diver in 1996 with his scout troop to take a trip to the Florida Keys, because of his father’s stories of traveling the world and diving while he was in the US Navy. Chris received his PADI Advanced Open Water and PADI Enriched Air diver courses in 2006. After finishing his studies in 2007, Chris finished his Instructor Development Course in 2008 as well as earning his MSDT rating. After completion of his training, Chris went back to California to teach diving in the Monterey area while running a dive shop in Northern California.
After 6 1/2 years of teaching all over California, Chris returned to the Florida Keys as a Master Instructor with aspirations of reaching the level of PADI Course Director. Chris’ passions in diving are coral reef ecology and chondrichthyes. With over 7600 dives and teaching many specialties. Chris is now rated as a PADI Platinum Elite Course Director, Rebreather Instructor Trainer, Diveheart Instructor Trainer and 100ton Master Captain. Chris has moved to Maui Diving to bring his passion for teaching and passing along his love for the sport to new instructors with him.
