Kaiden is 13 and very excited to become scuba certified. She is a very active and engaged conservationist: she participates in coastal cleanups, and is involved in ocean protection programs both in school and outside of school. She volunteers to raise awareness of wise stewardship of ocean resources, in general, and the problems of marine pollution, in particular. She is active in organizations that are focused on getting young people active in conservation. She hopes that getting certified to dive will help her advance her goal of becoming a marine biologist.
