About me
During my 5 years in the industry, I dedicated myself to improve and hone a variety of skills including boat/line handling, maintenance/repair and guest service. I continued to obtain essential qualifications including YM200, EDH, HELM and PSCRB to support my journey and improve on my navigation, watchkeeping and safety abilities required to advance through the ranks. My time as Training Master on smaller vessels and managing a large part of my own responsibilities on larger vessels taught me excellent managerial skills, attention to detail and how to work both in a team and individually. This coupled with my passion for the ocean and the industry have prepared me to step up as a key member of any crew and I am confident that I will be an asset to any team.
