Jill Masloski
Dive Master
I was introduced to diving in 1999 in a couple lakes in the mountains of upstate New York. Mike had convinced me to join an Open Water class with him shortly after we had visited the Living Seas at Epcot while on vacation. Upon returning home, we found an Instructor and began our training. Fortunately, we moved to Florida within a year of our certification and we have had the beautiful reefs of West Palm Beach in our "backyard" ever since! I enjoy diving the various reefs in West Palm; it's amazing to me how each dive is different and you never know what you're going to see. Some of my favorite creatures are turtles, sharks, and juvenile angelfish!
In the last few years I've been working on underwater photography and I am building a collection of pictures of all the great marine life.
As a Dive Master, I like assisting the Instructors with Open Water classes and watching the new divers' excitement as they complete their first few dives. I hope to inspire people to love diving as I do, continue their education, and develop a respect for the marine environment.

Rick Allen
Dive Master
Hi I'm Rick Allen. I've been diving since the summer of '06. I admit it, I am addicted to diving! I've been lucky enough to meet lots of great people while doing my hobby. The thing I like best about diving is there's always something new that you didn't notice before. From sea turtles to goliath groupers to the not-scary-at-all sharks, there's always something pretty amazing to see. That's what keeps me coming back to the water! |

Andy Heinssen
Dive Master
First experienced scuba diving by attending dive classes in High School, I knew this would be a fun ride so I got certified right away. Drifted away from diving for a period of time (military obligations) but decided to get my two kids certified when they were old enough and I got re-certified so we could spend some time together. This was in 2004 when SeaDragons first opened. Continued to Advanced Open Water certification with my kids and really caught the diving bug by this time and went right into acquiring my Nitrox and Rescue Diver certification. Spent the next few years diving and improving my skills and finally in 2009 decided to take the next step and acquired my Dive Master Certification through SeaDragons. Next step in my diving career is to start assisting with class room instruction and working towards my goal of Instructor. |
