The Dream ...
Meet Matt Johnston, explorer, pioneer, and inspiration to many. He is a man who has set out not to push limits, but to define them.
At age 29, after a near three year pursuit of his dream, Matt became the FIRST ventilator dependent individual IN THE WORLD to go scuba diving. Since a young age, Matt has defied the odds of muscular dystrophy with more than a will to live...as he pursued a dream to one day experience a world that many take for granted.
In November 2006, Matt achieved a HUGE first for the adaptive scuba community, being the first with his condition to dive in the ocean.
Matt's vision has inspired many. In collaboration with Ocean Opportunity, the 'Diving a Dream' project has been created as a focal point to motivate others in their pursuit to realize their own dreams, and demonstrate the unprecedented accomplishments that are made possible when a personal obsession to maximize one's potential, unselfishly, become realized.
What's next...
Matt continues to live life to the fullest, taking steps to create new opportunities for the adaptive scuba community. Diving a Dream is seeking continued support and marquee partners to keep Matt's dream alive. Contact us to get involved! http://www.divingadream.org/
