About Us

---

Corey started diving as a cadet at the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY in 1996.  He spent all of his free time diving and working his way through the ranks to become a Recreational Open Water Instructor.  He spent a lot of time in the Northeast diving in cold, murky water honing his skills in low visibility environments.  Currently retired after 23 years as a pilot in the Army, he is the founder and owner of OTD Kraken in Williamsburg, Va.  Over the past three years, Corey focused his energy on technical diving and gravitated towards closed circuit rebreathers.  Rated in CCR Advanced Trimix, Corey continues to expand his limits in the technical field.  He continues to expand his experience in the recreational dive industry through his work as the Dive Safety Officer at the Virginia Living Museum and his latest expansion in to the immersive travel diving experience.  Contact us to find out more in how we can tailor your diving experience.
