My Present
I’ve been in crew placement since 2018 and joined the NoJo team in 2019. No place else I’d rather be than with this tribe.
My Past
Arizona-born and still partial to the West Coast climate; I discovered the yachting industry in 2007 while working as the Marketing Director for a South FL nonprofit after college. Some friends suggested I meet with a crew agent “just to see what it’s all about” and four hours after that meeting, I got a call asking if I wanted to fly to Panama to join an Expedition yacht. I said yes and spent the next ten years cruising the world as a Chief Stew. Of the innumerable special moments and destinations along the way, the Arctic Circle and Northwest Passage top the list. Nothing quite like glancing out of a bridge window and seeing a Polar Bear swimming along starboard side just meters away.
My Future
Professionally, I loooove paying it forward and mentoring yacht crew. Making introductions that lead to lasting relationships and opportunities when I connect my clients with stellar crew, is what it’s all about for me. The sky’s the limit with this industry.
Personally, my plan is to never stop globe-trotting.
My Motto
If the grass is greener on the other side, move the fence.
My Outside-office Life
Fitness, Friends, Music, French Bulldogs (I have two)… the list goes on.
Fast Facts
I have a fear of heights which I’m convinced is increasing exponentially with each passing year.
Put a good book in my hand and I’ll finish it in a day.
