About Me

I am from New London, Connecticut, where I grew up listening to sea stories from my Submariner father and was enthralled with trips to the seaports of Mystic & Groton.

Following in my father's footsteps I also decided to pursue a career at sea. First becoming a certified Scuba Instructor and later a U.S. Coast Guard Certified Captain. I have spent my entire career working on the oceans of the world in Hawaii, Thailand, Palau, Philippines, Egypt, Puerto Rico, U.S Virgin Islands, Saba, St Kitts, St. Martin, Turks & Caicos and The Bahamas.

I moved to Chicago with my family in 2019 from Honolulu. In my free time I enjoy spending time on the lake with my wife and two boys, fishing, diving, swimming & tubing.

Thank you, Captain Jonathan Zietlow
