About

I’ve spent over a decade working at sea, building my career step by step in the yachting industry. I started hands-on, learned the job properly, and grew into positions that require responsibility, judgment, and calm under pressure. The sea teaches you fast, especially about teamwork, leadership, and taking care of people and assets.

Career Objective

I want to continue working on well-run vessels where professionalism, safety, and respect matter. My goal is long-term collaboration, steady growth, and being someone owners and management can rely on to keep operations smooth and standards high. I’ve worked on private yachts in both seasonal and permanent roles, holding senior deck and captain positions. My experience covers navigation, crew management, guest operations, maintenance planning, and compliance, everything needed to run a yacht properly, not just sail it.

Hobbies & Interests

I enjoy staying active and outdoors, especially anything related to the sea. I’m interested in navigation, new marine technology, and keeping up with industry developments. Off the boat, I value fitness, travel, and good food, simple things that keep me balanced and sharp for the job.
