About

Having been raised on a farm, this along with boarding school and a tertiary education has equipped me with discipline, tenacity, work ethic and team player skills. I am a keen sportsman, fitness focused and enjoy adventure. As a deckhand I bring dedication, adaptability and a relentless work ethic to every task. I understand the importance of being a team player, attention to detail and hard work. I am eager to learn and excited to grow within the industry and add as much value as I can to the crew and vessel. My career objective is to enter into the yachting industry as a deckhand. With more experience and time at sea, I would like to pursue my Officer of the Watch

Hobbies & Interests

Fitness plays a large role in my lifestyle. When not working, I enjoy everything the outdoors has to offer such as hiking, surfing, running and cycling. I thrive on continuously learning and growing outside of my comfort zone and have recently taken up Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Outside of fitness I have a keen interest in photography and videography.
