Career Objective
I am Chief Engineer STCW 95 Commercial Class 1.
During my years involved in the Commercial and more so in the Yachting industries as a
Marine Engineer, I have been constantly developing my talents, expanding my
knowledge and gaining experience to enable me to achieve higher standards in my career.
My communication skills help me to better understand the complexities of building,
operating and maintaining a luxury mega yacht to its optimum standard. Being naturally
gregarious, I am a keen team player and enjoy working with others, however, I also enjoy
the challenges and satisfaction that working autonomously can bring.
My goal is to improve my knowledge and skills through working on yachts and to build a
steady career in yachting industry.
