Being a diver in the Chicagoland area can be challenging, especially for introverts looking to navigate dive opportunities and community engagement.

If you are looking to get into scuba diving and don't know where to start I recommend the following:

• Get in contact with Richard Tessell as a private instructor. Tell him Tyler sent you!
...or...
• Visit Crystal Blue Diving in Lake In The Hills. Speak to Mike and he can get you going. Tell him Tyler sent you!
