About

I grew up in the South of France, spending much of my childhood at sea, where waterskiing was a family favorite. After completing my A-Levels in 2021, I entered the maritime industry and secured my first position as a Chase Boat Captain, operating a 16-meter yacht for three seasons. I have piloted various powerboats, accumulating over 11,300 nautical miles.
