We don't fit any of the categories neatly (but we're used to this by now).
We have 'beginner' technical certs and we're not likely to pursue further training to mixed gases with helium.
No local diving - I once put together some local specialty c-card ideas of underwater herpetologist (as a sub-specialty of the underwater naturalist theme) and pirogue diver (as a sub specialty of the boat diver theme) but I don't think those ideas reside here any more. The 'Dirty Jobs' TV program episodes with Mike Rowe at the alligator farm and going crawfish collecting emptying traps are good reference matter for local diving potential where we're at.
So, we only dive on vacations, in warm , clear water. We get 30+ dives a year typically logged this way, mainly as independent buddy team shore dives these days, taking our time and diving our schedule instead of someone else's schedule. Our gear is tech-capable but our proiles are largely rec-only (no decompression obligation incurred single tank back gas carried diving).
And, we're definitely dork divers since we only dive for fun.
