I bring a wealth of diversity to the job. I have a long ,diverse and successful career as professional mariner. Ideally, I would get into the offshore drilling business. I am willing to begin as officer entry level and work my way up in this new branch of the maritime industry. I am also looking to get back onto dry bulk carriers in the foreign trade in a deck officer position.
