Summary
With over 30 years of professional and recreational seamanship, I've honed exceptional leadership and communication skills, particularly in Sydney's and Far North Queensland's maritime environments. At Quicksilver Dive and various other companies, I've leveraged my extensive knowledge of waterways and regulations to ensure safety and customer satisfaction, showcasing my ability to adapt and excel in diverse settings.
I am passionate about the maritime environment and am looking to return to a professional role on the water.
