Jenny Lord - Human Factors Instructor

Jenny Lord is a dynamic force in the diving community, blending her expertise as a Human Factors instructor with a passion for fostering teamwork, communication, and safety in diving. Based in Dahab, Egypt, Jenny is a TDI technical instructor trainer, advanced Trimix instructor, and advanced mixed gas CCR diver with over a decade of experience teaching SCUBA and supporting deep diving expeditions. Her journey began in outdoor education, where she taught rock climbing, whitewater kayaking, skiing, and more, developing a unique ability to empower individuals and teams in challenging environments.

As a key member of The Human Diver team, Jenny is renowned for her engaging Human Factors courses and as a prolific writer for the blog, inspiring divers worldwide with her insights on creating a positive and safety-focused culture. Her influence reaches new heights in 2025 as she joins the Master Liveaboards trip in Indonesia, where participants will have the rare opportunity to dive with her and experience her passion for diving and human factors firsthand. Whether through her teaching or writing, Jenny continues to make waves in the diving world, inspiring and elevating those around her.

Scuba Adventures is absolutely thrilled to welcome Jenny Lord to what promises to be one of the most exciting and impactful expeditions we’ve ever undertaken. Over the years, Scuba Adventures has hosted multiple sessions of the highly regarded Face 2 Face class, helping over 30 divers engage deeply with the principles of teamwork, just culture, and psychological safety. On this trip, we’re honored to have five of these graduates joining us, bringing their shared language and understanding to the team dynamic.

Now, we’re taking it a step further. On our upcoming trip to Indonesia, we’re bringing together six of those graduates who will join Jenny Lord for what promises to be an unforgettable expedition. The foundation of shared language and understanding among these graduates, combined with Jenny’s unparalleled expertise in fostering teamwork, just culture, and psychological safety, will create a dynamic team environment unlike anything we’ve seen before.

Remember that iconic scene in The Matrix where Neo (Mr. Anderson) is offered a choice: the red pill or the blue pill? The red pill represents the opportunity to awaken to the truth, to see the world as it really is, no matter how uncomfortable it may be. The blue pill, on the other hand, allows him to stay in the comfort of the illusion, blissfully ignorant of reality. I’m offering my staff the red pill, over and over again, and so far, none of them have wanted to go back to the blue pill lifestyle.

This trip will not only push the boundaries of what we can accomplish in diving but also what we can achieve as a cohesive team. With a shared focus on teamwork, just culture, and psychological safety, we’re striving to make this journey more than just a diving trip—it’s a chance to grow as individuals, as divers, and as a community.

I can’t recommend this place enough. After moving to the area, I read a lot of reviews and emailed several dive shops before going with Scuba Adventures. I choose them because they were the most responsive and helpful. The owners seem to not only be great divers but have business backgrounds. This is the most focus on customer service I have seen in a dive shop. Good inventory with all of the brands I could ask for. On point with their pricing. If you do find a better price they will work with you.

I ended up taking the Rescue Diver course and had a blast! I just got back from a dive trip with them at Lake Travis, very enjoyable. They also have one of the only indoor pools (18 ft.) in the area.

At Scuba ranch they have a big spot that is one of the easiest to get to and a nice pavilion for training. They are right next to the air refill station, which I love! Family and friends are welcome at the ranch. Good community there on weekends and you'll most likely find a dive buddy for a fun dive.

Scuba Adventures and their staff are beyond amazing! Their Plano store has a very wide selection of equipment and the pool is 18ft deep! Their Scuba Ranch location is amazing and still growing, with plenty of room and seating. I’m a fairly new diver and all the instructors do an amazing job of making me feel safe and secure deep underwater. Their staff is always very helpful and I can’t wait to continue my diving knowledge and certificates with them.

Found a great diving shop for all my gear. Been living here in texas for awhile and this shop has just what I needed. Really recommend scuba adventure for all your gear.

Went in last week to pick out goggles for an upcoming trip— loved the selection of masks they had available! Ended up picking out a hot pink pair to shamelessly match the other accessories I’d picked out.

The new owners are the greatest! Their positive approach towards people and the sport of diving are huge part of the reason I love the sport. When they told me they were going to open a dive shop; I knew without a doubt I was going to be their customer. I have taken several dive adventures with them and other scuba diving misfits, and plan on taking many more.

Decided to revisit this shop since it is under new management. Already impressed with the facility improvements - by far the best training pool I have seen. Looking forward to the roll out of the full training curriculum - will be able to go from open water certified through all kinds of technical specialties. Good dive gear selection. Owners really have a great vision for promoting scuba diving and ocean adventures.

This is the shop with the most experienced and competent personnel in the metroplex. Their commitment to safe, enjoyable and professional instruction is obvious from the first time you enter the store and meet the staff and owners. I have dove with most of them over the years and know first hand the love of diving they have and now share with the community as the new team. They are knowledgeable and up to date with the latest dive info. Don't miss a chance to dive with them.

In January 2020, Scuba Adventures was purchased by divers that were affiliated with a different scuba store. These same divers taught me to dive, and got me to fall in love with scuba diving (despite me being pretty scared to start). I trust them, enough that I opted to take a trip with them to Cozumel for diving in 2019. It was one of the best trips of my life, and now I'm already signed up for their Costa Rica dive trip in 2020 with Scuba Adventures. I haven't visited the shop yet, but I can 100% vouch for the new owners--they are knowledgeable divers, good people, and all around amazing.

Owners and staff are professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. Allowed me to try backplate and wing set up in the pool. They did not pressure me to buy anything, but gave great information on products and financing options. All in all great staff and would recommend them to anyone!!!

Great customer service, from the owners to the employees. Very knowledgeable about everything and anything pertaining to scuba diving. The instructors are highly educated and experienced in scuba diving. They put you through real life scenarios, so you know and understand what to do in the event something happens while you are under water. My family and I learned a lot about scuba diving in a very short amount of time. We will definitely keep taking additional courses with Scuba Adventures as we progress. We definitely reccomend Scuba Adventures to anyone wanting to learn and get scuba diving certified.
