Summary

I’m eager to find my first position onboard a yacht with a professional interior team. I am a positive person, always engaging and eager to apply into practice some of the techniques I have developed through my work experience. Growing up on Great Barrier Island I have found love for the ocean and gained a love of adventure so I am looking forward to my career onboard a super yacht.
