About
Born and raised in New Zealand, I spent much of my childhood on the water wakeboarding, waterskiing, fishing and boating with my family. That adventure filled upbringing naturally led me to the yachting industry, where I’m excited to kickstart my career as a junior stewardess/deckhand. With over 6 years experience in high end hospitality and customer service I know how to stay composed in high pressure environments. I’m a quick learner, guest focused and i’m flexible, willing to help out wherever I’m needed. Outside of work, I enjoy skiing in winter, boating in summer and spending time with friends camping or around a BBQ. Outgoing and positive, I enjoy working closely with others and bring strong social energy. I’m proactive, a team player and self motivated, eager to bring my enthusiasm to a professional team.
