Dive Instructor
Kaleigh is so excited to have the opportunity to share her love of living on a sailboat and exploring the underwater world this summer! A competitive swimmer from age 5 through high school, Kaleigh feels most at home on or in the water. At 13, she stepped onboard her first ActionQuest boat and earned her Advanced Open Water certification to one day be a member of AQ Staff. Returning every summer, Kaleigh has built her diving and sailing qualifications, culminating with a trans-Atlantic and Mediterranean crossing on Seamester’s S/Y Vela, and the following summer, Kaleigh earned her Divemaster certification. Kaleigh is studying at New York University, majoring in Film and TV Production.
Fun Facts: Kaleigh lived her early years in Steamboat Springs, CO and was skiing at 23 months old. Her love of the mountains inspired her at the age of 15 to climb Mt. Kilimanjaro to raise funds for the schools in the Kibera Slum in Nairobi, Kenya. When not in the water or at the helm, look for Kaleigh at the stern of the boat strumming her Ukulele and singing her favorite show and pop tunes.
