Hello there! My name is Candice Landau. I am a writer/marketer/diving fanatic. I'm originally from South Africa but have spent many years in both the U.K. and the U.S.. At present I live and work in Eugene, Oregon where I am an active Divemaster. I am also a Scientific Diver affiliated with Oregon State University, a volunteer diver at the Oregon Coast Aquarium, a diver with the Maritime Archaeological Society out of Astoria and a newly-minted Marine Reserves Diver. Last year I completed my first technical dive training courses. Through my writing I hope to share my love of diving and to educate others about the ocean and the incredible life in it so that more people can get involved in efforts to preserve and conserve this precious and endangered resource.
