Objective
To gain employment with a company that provides commercial shipping services. Desire
an entry position that would provide experience on-deck to learn commercial aspects and
increase knowledge base of the shipping industry. Goal is to gain more off-shore
experience to assist in building a strong career path in commercial shipping. In addition,
utilizing my Master Captain’s License as a base, the plan is to continue to further
education and experience to increase capacity and tonnage.
