Teen Josephine Amy Dituri partnered with her exploration-adept father to chronicle her father’s life in a book for young kids whose parents are divers or interested in the undersea realm. Jospeph Dituri’s underwater adventures have spanned the globe and include finding new species while helping develop and test the newest undersea technologies. A graduate of the Advanced Management Program at University of Virginia Darden, School of Business, Joseph is currently pursuing his PhD in Biomedical Engineering at the University of South Florida. He strives to improve the undersea industry's triple bottom line while promoting quality and safety standards.
