During my working experience in the maritime industry I managed to gain some good qualities becoming more responsible, cooperative with sense of humor and more open to work and communicate in team with lots of people from different nationalities. As young and ambitious person I can say that I really enjoy my profession and I hope that I'll find the best boat and team to work with. My intention for a future is to continue my professional development in the industry, because yachting is my passion.
