Linda Lee Walden and Lynn Laymon, Training Editors

“Scuba diving totally redirected our lives,” says Linda Lee Walden who with her husband Lynn Laymon serve as training editors for Dive Training.
“While in the middle of successful corporate careers, we moonlighted teaching scuba locally and spent our vacation time leading scuba groups to the tropics. Before long our love of diving surpassed our traditional career aspirations,” Laymon said. In 1987 Linda and Lynn traded their corporate offices and business attire for swimsuits and the sunny beaches of the Caribbean and later Hawaii.
Since then Lynn and Linda have immersed themselves in the scuba industry — teaching all levels of scuba certification, captaining dive charter boats, traveling extensively, capturing photographs, writing books and for the past 15 years contributing monthly to Dive Training. Today they travel full-time, living in a 40-foot motor home as they explore from Mexico to Canada in pursuit of just one more perfect diving adventure.
