Manuel Lassaletta

I was born in the Caribbean, raised in a multilingual home, and am fluent in English and Spanish. After completing a degree in English, and prior to dedicating the vast majority of my time and energy to SCUBA over the last decade, I worked in New York City in various capacities, all dedicated to helping others and improving their quality of life.

I am a Captain and Master SCUBA Diver Trainer with extensive experience in leading, mentoring divers, and improving customer service. I have demonstrated success in wildlife conservation initiatives and team collaboration in high-pressure situations, as well as strong problem-solving skills that enhance operational efficiency and participant satisfaction.

My interests, aside from Sharks, Cetaceans, Frogfish, Cephalopods, Nudibranches, and various other micro/megafauna include travel, literature, music, comedy, and the preservation of endangered species.

I'm seeking a position with a Liveaboard that places a high emphasis on customer service, professionalism, world class dives & aquatic experiences, supports employee development, and offers opportunities for professional advancement.

I think the Turks and Caicos Aggressor could be the ideal operation to capitalize on my ability to relate and communicate with individuals from diverse backgrounds, and share my passion for the Ocean and its inhabitants.
