About

I am currently working onboard as a Lead Deckhand / Chief Stewardess and seeking my next exciting opportunity within the yachting industry (private or charter). My goal is to build a long-term career where I can combine strong deck skills with high-end guest service, ensuring both smooth vessel operations and an exceptional guest experience. Beyond my professional skills, I have a genuine passion for the ocean. I am an advanced diver and enjoy watersports of all kinds -- from swimming and diving to jet skiing. This love for the sea inspires my work onboard and drives my enthusiasm to deliver the highest standards both on deck and in guest service. With a diverse background in deck operations, hospitality management, and guest services, I thrive in dynamic, multicultural environments and contribute positively to the crew atmosphere.
