Gemma and Ian talk to Aoibheann Gillespie-Mules.   Aoibheann (pronounced E-Fin) grew up along the gorgeous NW coast of Ireland so was drawn to the ocean from an early age. She finished a Bachelor in Marine Science then participated in a whale shark project in Mozambique and ultimately knew she wanted nothing more than to be under the surface daily.  She travelled to the tropics to begin professional training in the diving industry.  Aoibheann , during lockdown co-authored a bi-lingual children’s book ‘Ocean Adventures with Cory,’ with a dear friend (founder of Oceanus Conservation) - a project focussing on ensuring that ocean literacy is accessible to the local communities that rely on the marine environment. Throughout her diving career she has always been fascinated with marine life beauty and photographing their incredible structures. By sharing the beauty of the marine environment through images (www.coralreefbeauty.com) she hopes to help educate and spread more awareness, highlighting the importance of these amazing marine ecosystems.
