Meet Damian

After being introduced to scuba diving on holiday in Thailand, I returned to the Netherlands and continued expanding my skill set.

I've been on the staff of Scuba Education Amsterdam since 2018, achieved TecRec certification in 2019 and became a TecRec instructor in 2022.

Being actively involved in diving and diver education has introduced me to extraordinary people and dive sites globally, with the Netherlands offering dive opportunities all year round at home.

I offer all core PADI courses, numerous speciality, TecRec and EFR courses directly & in collaboration with a select number of PADI 5-star centres.

In addition to Scuba Diving, I am also an experienced IT professional with a background in IT systems/network engineering.

Previously I have been a climbing instructor for the scout association & maintainer of anti-vandalism services for Wikipedia.
