"...and I will make you fishers of men"

Matthew 4:19

Alyssa is the owner and operator of The Rhode Island Mermaid, as well as a professional PADI certified mermaid performer available for dry, in-water and underwater showings. Her endeavor is to bring next-level, other-worldly mermaid experiences to New Englanders while creating more professional working opportunities to local mers. In support of this visions, she created New England's first local mobile mermaid tank with a crew of fabrication experts and aquarium enthusiasts. This mobile tank makes underwater mermaid performances accessible in more places without aquariums or pools to facilitate such a magical experience, or to aquariums that prefer not to disturb their marine life with performer activity.

Alyssa began mermaiding as a hobby to share with her young daughter.  She was born in raised in the Rhode Island, making memories on the beaches and drawing deep connection between her faith and the sea. Her love for the mysterious, peaceful, yet ever-so alive and colorful world under the waves has shaped much of who she is today and continues to nurture deep meaning and inspiration in her life. Alyssa is a heart-first individual, and this business was born (and will always be founded in) a love for nurturing one's inner child, and connecting with others. Partnering often with charities like "Children's Wishes" Alyssa enjoys working with children and helping them to make their merfolk dreams come true.
