Hi,

My name is Matt, I have been checking out the board for some time now. We just moved from San Marcos, Texas to Northern Virginia in November. I have been diving for a while now. I have been instructing since early part of 2006. I received my Instructors certification through NAUI. The ITC I attended was Don Dibbles last one as a coarse director.
I am anxious to get back in the water here in Virginia but the winter months seem to be the down time here. I would also like to establish myself with a dive shop here in Virginia as an instructor, AI, DM, counter help, etc.
I have checked out some Ice Diving courses that are taking place farther north that seem interesting. I got bit by the Tech diving bug during my cave training and plan on pursuing courses in that direction if anyone has suggestions on shops.

Thank you and I look forward to participating on the board,

Matthew Chonka
