How did you start in yachting?

I started scuba diving at 8yrs old, so with a love of the ocean it was always going to be either Royal Navy or a yachting career!

What are you up to currently?

I’m visiting family in the UK for a couple weeks before heading back to the SoF to start my EDH course, and we have a shipyard period planned in the new year.

What are the next courses you’re prepping for?

I’d like to do HELM (O) in January, time permitting with the works we’re doing onboard!

That sounds rather busy, anything else going on?

I’m definitely an ambitious type, I love learning from everyone around me and soaking up knowledge.

At only 20yrs old I’m happy with what I’ve managed to achieve and grateful for all the opportunities, and I don’t intend to wait around to get stuck into my studies!
I hope to squeeze in the GMDSS course as well.

Tell us about your favourite experience so far in yaching

On my first boat, I was lucky enough to scuba dive with sharks in the Bahamas every day, it was an incredible experience. This industry is tough at times, with long days and can be high levels of stress, but some of the experiences we enjoy are amazing and I feel lucky to be a part of it.
