Beyond diving, he is an active speleologist and cave explorer. He has participated in numerous cave exploration and research projects, including the discovery, exploration, and documentation of previously unknown cave systems. His combined experience in cave diving and speleology provides a unique perspective on both underwater and underground exploration.
Today, his work is dedicated to the development of recreational, technical, and cave diving, the organization of international expeditions, professional diver education, and the promotion of safe, responsible exploration in both underwater and subterranean environments.
