I'm someone who truely enjoys what I do, approaching my work with a strong ethic and a practical, logical mindset. I'm organised
and take pride in my work, always seeking ways to improve and grow as an engineer. My hands-on approach to problem solving is one
of my key strengths, and my experience working on yachts has set high standards for what I expect in a professional environment.
Safety and efficiency are my top prioritys, amd I'm eager to join a team that shares these values.
Outside of work, I'm passionate about adventure and maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle. I love gravel cycling, bike-packing trips,
hiking, paddleboarding, and even kite surfing (though I'm still learning!). Currently, I am planning an exciting motorcycle trip
through Europe for 2024. I am also a car enthusiast who enjoys socialising and trying out new activities. I'm looking forward to
bringing my dedication and enthusiasm to a dynamic and experienced team.
Since joining stardust, I have been fortunate enough to work with amazing crew and learnt so much while developing my skills and travelling the world from Thailand to Australia to Norway and the Med. With the covid restriction, we had problems when warrenty work arises while working cloesly with the after sales team at Amels. We carried out the warrenty work with parts and additional knowledge procided by Amels. We built a good working relationship with the team in the yard and once we had returned to Amels to complete all warrenty works at 2 years, we accomplished everything and more we had set out to do. Throughout my time on Stardust, I have been organising store parts maintaining repairs and improvement while creating SOPs and updating and altering the planned maintenance system to match the conditions of the vessel was operating in with a big push on our power management plan. Onboard we are operating with CAT3512s, CAT C9 gen-sets Quantum stabilisers, Hi-fog, Hamman watewater treatment, Jets vac system, De-wall and Van-Drill hydraulic systems, Alfa level fuel sep, Heinen & Hopman HVAC system. In addition to this, we have a nimbus C11,12m chase boat along with three sea doo Jet skis and a 6.2m Pasco rescue tender. Cerio networking and Star Link internet provider we installed the Star Link Maritime and Star Link RV Systems, with the maritime set up inside the TVRO dome and the RV on the mast.
