I left my career as a chef at 21, sold everything, and moved to Mexico to dive. Ten years later, I’ve shot sharks in the Bahamas, reefs in the Philippines, and caves across the Yucatán—but the cenotes always called me back.
Liquid Light is the result of obsession, exploration, and the creative pursuit of light.
