A quick bio from Matt Clements:
“I am a passionate instructor teaching and I am working towards my PADI Course Director rating. I have managed diving centres around the world and have run my own. I am also a keen surfer and took a break from diving to read Law (LL.B Hons) but decided while working for a law firm that I missed the industry and started working for PADI in 2010.”
