About
I'm a natural hard-worker, always have a can-do attitude, work well under pressure and love to make sure guests are having their best time apart from keeping the highest standards in detail. I grew up at sea as my father was a Captain and fisherman, my grandfather sailed around the world. Professionally I have 5 years experience in the maritime sector and a total of 1 and a half years in yachting. I'm seeking a permanent position on a 50m+ M/Y where I can contribute significantly and progress in my career. I have already started my OOW modules so I would love to continue working towards it whilst in a great team environment.

Visas
Hobbies & Interests
I love carrying out activities at sea such as snorkeling, diving, surfing and I must admit I am quite a fishing geek! When on land I really enjoy long walks, going hiking and hanging out with friends having fun. Gym is part of my lifestyle and I do enjoy dedicating some time to it when I have the opportunity.
