About

I believe that being brought up by the seaside has led me to my passion for water sports and a career at sea. As an avid boating enthusiast with a deep passion for the ocean, my interests naturally navigate and align with the world of yachting. I have always been drawn to exploring coastal waters, navigating various vessels, and immersing myself in marine environments. My experiences have further enhanced my understanding of vessels and maritime conditions. I am continuously seeking to expand my knowledge, skills and experience of maritime, yacht maintenance & navigation technology. As someone who works great in teams and independently, I can adapt to any new situation or challenges thrown at me which I will tackle with a can-do positive attitude and mature manner. I am of smart appearance with a friendly natured approachable personality who is a good team player, whilst using my own initiative. I have good work ethics, hard worker, independent, fast learner who thrives in learning new skills. I have dedication and my ambition to achieve high goals in life within the marine industry.
