Dear Shipmates

Introduction

I love the ocean and have been on boats my whole life. Starting with motor boats and sail boats on lakes and the Salish Sea in Washington State growing up. In 2019 I left Maui to help a friend sail from Mexico to French Polynesia on a 30 ft boat. I continued sailing on 5 different vessels to make it to Australia before the end of 2019. I have captained in Maui on a 44 ft and 57 ft private monohull sailing charters for a year and a half and captained 27-31 foot ribbed inflatable rafts around the rough seas of Kanaio coast in Maui. I have ran term-charters out of the USVI, Bahamas and SVG (Bequia) on 48, 52, 58 and 62 foot catamarans. I fixed up and sold my 38 ft sailboat Utila, Honduras. I worked on boats in Milford sound, NZ doing tours and diving there. I worked all of 2024 summer in alaska driving boats for whale watch tours out of juneau. I am now in tahiti helping deliver a 42' ketch.

I love working on projects, sailing, diving, conservation and showing people the ocean. I have a marine biology degree and my PADI divemaster.
