Who am I
Christine Sbick
biologist and historian
Education: I dive since my university time. A thorough diving training I received at the Technical University in Berlin. For six months we went through here alone, the ABC training to the next half year to complete the course. Our course led us to conclude to Corsica, where we emerged from the beautiful islands of Lavezzi. Thoroughly trained, but without apparent I was following the PADI training is not difficult, I went through in Australia on the Great Barrier Reef. The love of diving made me never leave me and so my interests always led back to the sea. Thanks to my training as a biologist I was entitled to a marine biology internship in southern France at the Institute of Banjul visit, which deepened my knowledge of species of the Mediterranean and further told me much about the small creatures of the sea.
But the reef-building corals have always been my dream and I wanted to know more about life in the coral reef. So I completed my dive training in Cairns in Cairns Dive Centre, where I took off my Rescue Diver and Divemaster my 2001 and gained practical experience in my work in the Outer Reef on the boat and the loading of CDC.
but I closed my training as a young school teacher with the Second State Examination in Biology and History and taught from many years of wonderful people. I still like to work as a school teacher at the high school.
Amed Scuba Diving school I founded, to create jobs in Bali and do my best to get more education on environmental and at the same time, to my great hobby of marine biology to be closer. Therefore Amed Scuba is the protection of coral reefs and the environment is a major concern. I hope to achieve this protection by I the people who work with Amed Scuba, where our guests to convey the love for this unique and wonderful ecosystem can. For only what one knows who loves you.

My job here at Amed Scuba is, above all, in addition to diving the Internet work. I am at the store or on the computer to people in their answer questions and advise and give more tips when I can.
