Ione Perhay

Ione, is the co-owner and John’s partner at IID.  She is not new to IID either.  Ione was certified in 1986 and began assisting with classes, OW training and several trips to the Caribbean.  She became a NAUI Assistant Instructor in 1988.
With close to 1,200 logged dives, Ione continues to dive throughout the Midwest, Florida and the Caribbean.  Recently she has taken up digital photography.  If you want to know the name of what you saw, Ione is the one to ask.  This biology teacher can identify creatures, coral and fish with the best.
