What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values safety, teamwork, and offers growth opportunities.

I am a dedicated and well-rounded maritime professional with extensive experience across diverse fisheries and vessel types. Respected by my peers for my loyalty, fairness, and intuitive approach, I prioritize collaboration and practical solutions over ego. My work ethic is grounded in honesty and humility, which has allowed me to thrive in dynamic maritime environments as both a team player and a leader.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Master on Offshore Wind Safety Vessels and working on commercial fishing and passenger vessels. My responsibilities have included navigating assigned areas, monitoring vessel traffic, conducting safety training, and overseeing deck operations. I have a proven track record of safety, adaptability, and commitment, which has been essential in the seasonal and often unpredictable fishing industry.

In addition to my hands-on experience, I have a Bachelor of Arts and Science from Seton Hall University and hold a United States Merchant Mariner Credential. My dedication to the maritime field is further demonstrated through my various certifications and commendations, ensuring that I remain at the forefront of industry standards and practices.
