    John first came to St. Thomas on vacation in 1995 and has been back every year since.  In his former life, he was a root canal dentist in upstate New York. His current schedule has him spending a few months in St. Thomas teaching and leading dives, a few months sailing in upstate New York, a couple months skiing and enjoying the beauty of winter, a few weeks hunting in the Catskills and returning to St. Thomas to start another year(what a retirement!). John loves to stay busy and each day if he isn't showing up the younger staff by moving all the dive tanks, he is ensuring our rental equipment is in top working order.

    Jessica's grandmother kidnapped her at the age of 12 and took her to Cozumel to get certified. Since then, Jessica has been an avid diver who has traveled extensively with her family for dive trips all over the world. In 2007, she joined us in St. Thomas after completing her IDC at Pro Dive in Florida. She loves to read, her preference being biographies and history and when she isn't diving, you can find her on the beach wrapped up in her latest book. Jessica also has a passion for animals, with pets both here in St. Thomas and back home in upstate New York.

    Rachel's path to St. Thomas Diving Club is one that has taken many turns. Graduating with a degree in Anthropology, she worked in the Ohio Valley for a few years while diving in her off time before deciding to make the jump to a full time career.  She moved to the Florida Keys where she got her start in the business and has been moving south ever since.  She worked in Turks and Caicos before coming to St. Thomas two years ago.  Rachel is back from her walk-about down under.

    Jen Kerr:

    A Pennsylvania native, Jen worked as an automobile sales consultant and real estate agent for 10 years. In 2006 Jen and her husband Chris left the chilly Northeast and transplanted to Ft. Lauderdale, where they both began careers as PADI SCUBA instructors. They have since been living the dive life in Key Largo, Florida and Oahu, Hawaii. Jen says that as soon as she arrived to visit St. Thomas in September, 2009, she knew she would be soon calling it home. In October Jen and Chris made the jump to St. Thomas with their two rescued bulldogs.

    Chris lived all over the US and Japan as a U.S. Army brat before settling in Hershey, Pennsylvania. There he met his wife Jen and began a new adventure moving around the world again. In 2006 he became a PADI SCUBA instructor and in 2008 he became a U.S. Coast Guard -certified 50-ton Boat Captain. When he and Jen first visited in September 2009, he thought that St. Thomas was exactly what he was looking for in a place to settle down and call home.
