Michi might be the most organised person in the team — but don’t be fooled into thinking she’s just running things from behind a desk. With over 1400 dives since she started in 1998, Michi is an experienced instructor with a serious passion for technical diving.
She’s a core part of our Extended Range team and teaches everything from Foundations to Extended Range Trimix. Her calm, steady approach makes her the perfect guide for anyone stepping into the sometimes- intimidating world of tech diving.
As one of the few female tech instructors on the island, Michi is a great mentor for other women in the sport. She brings a wealth of experience and practical tips for small-bodied divers — from smart gear configuration to custom solutions that improve comfort and efficiency. Being a petite diver herself (with famously tiny feet), she knows exactly how to adapt setups that aren’t always designed with smaller frames in mind.
When she’s not teaching or fine-tuning gear, Michi has a great eye behind the lens — capturing stunning underwater shots that showcase Lanzarote´s beauty beneath the surface.
Outside the water, Michi is our equipment service tech, public relations lead, and the one who keeps Daivoon running like a well-lubed regulator. And yes, her cakes still make her the most loved person in the dive center — even the most hardcore tec divers sometimes have a sweet tooth.
Michi isn’t just guiding dives and teaching — she’s helping others grow into confident, comfortable divers at their own pace.
