Adam Maire

Explorers Club Member, Polar Expedition Diver, Naturalist, and Historian, Adam Maire is dedicated to exploring around the globe with a goal of researching, documenting, and teaching others about the beauty, the power and the importance of the earth's wild places. With degrees in Animal Science, History and a Scuba Diving Instructor certification, he is passionate about finding extraordinary ways to help others understand the links between the worlds that exist both above and below the surface of the ocean.

Growing up working outside on a cattle ranch in Nebraska, Adam's love for nature started early in life. Through college he continued to learn about the natural world and sought out jobs that aided in his thirst for knowledge. After college, he joined the U.S. Army where he served as a Team Leader in an Airborne Infantry unit. After leaving the military, Adam began documenting the underwater world through photography and videography from the Arctic Ocean all the way to Antarctica and many places in between. Spending 6 months per year in the field, he works to educate people about these remote places and the important impact they have at a global level. Every part of this earth is connected through the five oceans.

Adam currently lives in Hawaii with his wife where they are both pursuing master's degrees in marine biology with a hope to focus their research on issues impacting both the Arctic and Antarctica underwater. In his free time, Adam volunteers with the non-profit Project Recover with a mission to find and repatriate the remains of missing American Service members.
