About

I'm wrapping up my first year in yachting having worked on a 74m private/charter yacht as a HK and Service Stewardess and more recently on a 140m+ private yacht in a 2 months temporary role as a Service Stewardess. Detail-oriented and adaptable, I developed a strong appreciation for structure, systems, and the kind of behind-the-scenes work that keeps a yacht running smoothly.

Career Objective

I'm now seeking a Stewardess role on a new motor or sailing yacht with a supportive team where I can grow into more responsibility over time. I'm eager to take on new challenges, deliver exceptional guest experiences, and thrive in fast-paced environments where efficiency and elegance go hand in hand.
