Wildlife Conservationist and Creator
Biography
PADI Dive Master, AmbassaDiver™, freediver, business owner, Filipina digital creator, photographer and ocean advocate are a few of the hats Cha Ocampo wears in her daily round. Growing up in the Philippines exposed Cha to the sea from early childhood, but it wasn’t until she was in her 20’s that she discovered a deeper passion for the ocean. In 2019, she became a certified freediver and started promoting marine conservation for the younger generation on social media. Her business brand “Le Milieu” focuses on wildlife conservation. When Cha isn’t teaching freediving at Seazoned Philippines, she shares her knowledge about diving to inspire more people to explore and properly care for our marine life.
