About

With over 18 years of hands-on experience in the yachting industry, I have built my career from Deckhand to Master(U), driven by a passion for delivering seamless and unforgettable experiences at sea. My approachable, calm/composed leadership style fosters excellence in service, ensuring smooth onboard operations while cultivating a positive crew and guest dynamic. I am purposefully pursuing a command role that aligns with my deep-seated commitment to the yachting industry. With steadfast dedication and practical expertise, I consistently strive to exceed expectations, seeking a long-term command position that reflects my vision, accelerates my professional aspirations, and allows me to channel my energy into crafting exceptional experiences and achieving operational excellence. I bring extensive expertise in manoeuvring motor yachts, navigating heavy currents, and handling complex berthing and un-berthing procedures with confidence. My wealth of shipyard experience includes overseeing warranty work and major refits independently, as well as contributing to large new-build projects. I take a proactive, hands-on approach to yacht operations, ensuring seamless execution in dynamic environments where precision, leadership, and innovation drive success. Additionally, my substantial experience in Heli Ops as an HLO on busy private and charter yachts has sharpened my adaptability and efficiency in high-stakes, fast-paced operations. Being part of a fleet has strengthened my ability to collaborate seamlessly across diverse teams, ensuring operational efficiency and consistency even in high-pressure environments. I believe in leading by example, encouraging a proactive and disciplined work culture that champions precision, teamwork, and professionalism at every level. With an unwavering commitment to operational excellence, I am eager to apply my skills, dedication, and strategic mindset to a well-structured programme that prioritises growth, innovation, and the highest standards of performance. My loyalty, honesty, and warm character, accompanied by a good sense of humour, allow me to enrich optimistic relationships and contribute meaningfully to any team I work with.
