About

Growing up in Falmouth, UK, being by the water was something that came natural to me, from an early age I found myself in and on it more than I was out of it. As a young adult I began pursuing jobs based around water, my first being a lifeguard and water sports instructor annually at a summer camp in the US. This brought leadership qualities as well as awareness of safety on the water. When I returned, I worked as a contractor at Pendennis Shipyard where I worked in a team refurbishing various vessels and became exposed to the superyacht industry. In addition, I have worked in hospitality, both in England and Canada, where I had the opportunity to work in high end restaurants serving VIP clientele. I've been fortunate to work closely with some brilliant engineers and deck teams during my time in yachting & have found myself enjoying being a part of the engineering department as well as being involved in the watersports side of things on deck when in dual roles.
