My Present
A few words about me, I have been working in the yachting industry for the last 10 years including 6 years in yacht finance management in renowned companies. Then, I decided to extend my knowledge, I passed my STCW and boarded as a Purser where I gained experience at sea.

My Past
I grew up by the sea, surrounded by yachting books and sextants, as my father ran a sailing school during her childhood. After first pursuing equine passions, I swapped bridles for bowlines, and has had yachting in my professional and personal life ever since. I love the multicultural environment in yachting, and being able to forge relationships with interesting and passionate people who work on yachts. 

My Future
I am truly proud to join Fairport and bring both my passion for boats and my professional experience.

My Motto
If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea." Antoine de Saint Exupéry

Fast Fact
My dream is to complete a circumnavigation on a classic sailing yacht.
