About
I'm Adelina Freitas, more known as Lexie. I'm of Pacific Islander descent from Timor-Leste. I've spent the past decade residing in Europe, where I've been managing my academic pursuits and professional endeavors independently. My journey has led me through diverse industries such as yachting, food production, customer service, retail, hospitality, and the performing arts. Growing up as a refugee and immigrant has instilled in me the importance of adaptability and hard work from a young age. Balancing full-time studies with work commitments over the years has sharpened my multitasking and time management skills, allowing me to thrive under pressure. I'm known for my friendly demeanor, collaborative approach, professionalism, and unwavering enthusiasm. I believe in tackling challenges with initiative and a positive attitude. I'm thrilled to seek a new position aboard a Sailing or Motor Yacht as a Stewardess, Deckhand, or Deck/Stew. And grow within the maritime industry.
