Luke is a PADI Course Director and has been diving and teaching scuba for 20 years. He was part of the original dive team to start using military grade rebreather equipment to tag pelagic hammerhead sharks for conservation and research. It was these expeditions that led to the successful creation of www.adoptashark.com and to a collaboration with UC Davis in California and the National Park Service that formed a structured outline for using rebreathers in scientific research. After graduating from the University of the West of England, Luke attended the London International Film School. When not working he enjoys walking his dogs. For all the best updates about what I am up to please follow me on: Facebook Twitter Instagram Luke's newly-released book, "The Sea Lions of Los Islotes", is a powerful visual representation of his affinity for these charismatic marine mammals that he tirelessly works to protect.
