He is passionate about the ocean and believes that social media can be used for good, to create awareness on environmental issues.
“Protecting the ocean is fundamental to our survival. Not only is it a source of food and oxygen, but an essential part of our physical and emotional well-being. Without the ocean, there is no life. SeaLegacy has created a space where we can marvel at the beauty of the ocean. They continually remind us about the importance of its conservation through stunning images that transcend borders, just like the ocean.”
