Certified Scuba Diver, Advocate for Wildlife Rescue and Conservation
I am a certified Open-Water Scuba Diver. I enjoy diving in spring water and salt water and observing the natural beauty of the underwater world as well as the sights and behavior of various marine life.
I study wildlife and have a special interest towards implementing stricter laws for the protection of wildlife and their habitats from being destroyed by ongoing development. The loss of wildlife leads to the loss of our ecosystem which plays an important role in not only the well-being of the animals but also continues to provide clean air, clean water and climate regulation. Life cannot be sustained without our ecosystems.
