About

I am a keen individual seeking my next Engineering position. I have an extensive boating background having been brought up on boats, and being helm in the powerboat racing industry alongside my father. My passion & enthusiasm for boats, engines & simply just being at sea is ingrained in me. It's been a dream of mine to enter the industry and I believe now is the right time to begin laying the foundations to allow my passion to become my livelihood. A team player & hard grafter have always been in my personality; growing up in Spain & their 'familia' way of life helped install this.

Hobbies & Interests

My most enjoyable hobby is powerboat racing, made even more personal by racing with my father. Having competed since a young age it's been a big part of my life. I started racing myself in 2015 and I've been hooked ever since. I enjoy playing football, going to the gym & wakeboarding in my spare time.
