Divers Direct confirms Sally Siebert as head Course Director at Ocean Divers, a PADI Career Development Center in Key Largo, Florida

KEY LARGO, Florida, USA (April 27, 2015) - Divers Direct is proud to announce that Sally Siebert will be taking the reins as head Course Director at Ocean Divers, a PADI Career Development Center for professional scuba divers, located in Key Largo, of the Upper Florida Keys. 

“I’m so excited for this opportunity!” says Siebert, “I have a feeling of excitement about what the future holds and look forward to doing many great things with Divers Direct and Ocean Divers.” She originally started her career in the fashion industry in Montreal, until she discovered scuba diving while vacationing in Mexico. 

Siebert worked her way up in the scuba industry ladder starting on liveaboard dive boats as a PADI Divemaster years ago. She then went to a PADI college in Santa Ana where she became a PADI scuba instructor. Siebert had worked as an instructor in St Croix for years before hurricane Hugo chased her back to California, where the frigid waters quickly convinced her to head to Key Largo. Her journey to Course Director then took her to Malaysia for her studies, where she was able to experience the spectacular waters surrounding Bornio. She also dived professionally in Guam, Micronesia, Truk, Yap and New Jersey before finally settling in Key Largo for a second time around. 

Divers Direct President, Darcy Kieran says, “Sally has actually been working for both Divers Direct and Ocean Divers as separate entities, and now that we are teaming up she has valuable work experience for both companies. Sally is the perfect course director to lead our scuba Career Development Programs at Ocean Divers during this phase of integration between the two companies.”
