Kevin Miller
Kevin Miller first started scuba diving in Lombok, Indonesia, in 1994. His experiences to date include being abandoned at sea by a tour operator, being marooned on a tropical island for a night, and being confronted by angry Truk Atoll natives for releasing their food source (baby sea turtles) into the ocean. And while on his honeymoon, he nearly lost his wife of 3 days in murky, bull shark infested waters off the coast of Costa Rica. Despite these misadventures, or because of them, he hopes to write the next chapter of his life at the snorkel and dive spots of Big Island, Hawaii.

Kevin has a Master’s Degree in Applied Linguistics from Macquarie University in Sydney, Australia and a Bachelor of Arts Degree in English Education with a minor in French from the University of Connecticut. He speaks Japanese fluently, has developed several websites, and enjoys working in Photoshop. After 17 years, he is retired from teaching English at Shikoku University and Tokushima University in Japan, and he has now stumbled onto his dream job of researching marine life and writing species fact sheets for SeaPics.com. When not in front of his computer, he's underwater somewhere off the Kona coast or exploring the Big Island with his wife, Shizuka, and elementary school-aged daughter, Riko. His son, Jay, teaches art in Manchester, New Hampshire.
