Dear Shipmates

Introduction

Hi all! I am an eager competent crew certified member looking to gain more miles and experience on the water! I have been on boats throughout my life motoring and sailing in Hawaiʻi, California, and the Med and now Fiji. My passions include all water sports (diving, surfing, jet skis, and wakeboarding). I love to cook and am looking to join a likeminded crew or family to support on holiday, cruising, or transfers. I love the teamwork aspect of sailing and would love to learn as much as possible from the captain and crew. Excited to meet you and hear about the next destination!

Currently crewing for 1.5 months around Fiji and looking for my next position for the winter months.

A little about myself, my interests and my plans

I love to travel and find that I am really adaptable to different people and cultures. I love the long passages as well as spending a few days exploring new places. I pride myself on staying tidy, clean, and respectful of other peoples space. I enjoy getting my hands dirty and learning as much as possible while enjoying the sunny days and getting daily swims in. Open communication and kindness are really important and believe those are the key to a good crew.

After years of casually chasing my dream of full time cruising I am ready to take the leap and get more time on the water while working my way to getting my own vessel. I love to try new things, seek adventure, and make the most out of everyday!
