About

Over the last 3 years of working on yachts it has allowed me to refine my communication skills, attention to detail, and ability to adapt to diverse environments. Having worked in fast-paced, high end establishments, I understand the importance of providing personalised service to guests while maintaining an immaculate and comfortable environment. Whether it's attending to guests requests, managing housekeeping duties, or ensuring the overall upkeep of the yacht. I am dedicated to ensuring that all aspects of the guest experience exceed expectations. I understand working in this industry not only requires strong service skills but also a professional and positive attitude and I am certain I can bring this 100% of the time. My passion for the ocean is reflected in my love for surfing, diving, and snowboarding, which I have enjoyed throughout my life.
