About With my 25+ years of experience comes a wealth of knowledge. For example, I can ensure a vessel is in good working order because I know how to check and maintain its condition both before and after being underway. The education I went through to gain my USCG Merchant Mariner Credential taught me how to properly operate a vessel and how to prevent, assess, and address potential hazards and emergencies. Knowing when to communicate with the USCG is an important part of the job as well, and I not only know when its required, but also how to properly communicate over the appropriate radio systems (VHF/ CB).
If hired to be your Captain, I would be able to research, chart, and submit courses to my superior. I would also be more than able to operate the helm and educate new Captains to do the same.
I bring a very unique Social Media presence with my dynamic content creation skills and abilities. Using my iPhone, I take stunning photographs of guests (With Consent) and edit them for marketing and customer satisfaction. I also create short form video content that could be very beneficial to your Brand. Learn more about my content creation side here.
