About me
I have thirty-three years of commercial and MOD experience at sea up to and including Chief Officer. I have gained vast knowledge of different types of work and vessel. I was trained by the Royal Fleet Auxiliary as an Officer Cadet in 1991. The training was exceptional due to the variety of work and depth of training. This included standard Merchant Navy and Royal Navy training courses. I am a confident deck officer with good instincts and an eye for detail. I feel that I have proved myself motivated, conscientious and adaptable. I am willing and able to take responsibility and work closely with crews and management. I work well under pressure, can perform equally well in a team, or on my own, and I have a professional approach to all my duties.
