Bibiana Martinez

An eighth grader at Seven Rivers Christian School, Bibiana started scuba diving when she was 12 years old. She immediately became a member of SCUBAnauts International, a scientific diving community forteens. As a Naut, Bibiana has participated in coral restoration in the Florida Keys by planting coral, conducting photogrammetry, and helping with Earth Day cleanup. Some of the SCUBAnaut trips require the students to have an advanced certification. With this grant, Bibiana plans to get Advanced, Nitrox, and Rescue certifications so she can participate in more dive trips to continue improving the environment.
