| General |
| Why did you leave your most recent position? I have been attending the Landing School Marine Systems program since September 2008, graduating June 2009 |
 |
| What kind of hobbies do you have, or what do you like to do in your free time?
Swimming, sailing, snow skiing, bycycling, photography, watching movies, travel |
|
| Is the yachting industry a career for you, or more of a sabbatical?
Yes |
|
| Describe what type of situation on board you feel you would fit in best? My goal is to be an engineer/first mate. With my Landing School education and IYT training I am broadly able to do just about any job on a yacht. I feel to best place to be now is the Second Engineer postion to gain experience and move up. Once I have enough qualifying miles I plan to earn a Captain's license as many large yachts require a second captain to be on board for insurance reasons. |

| DeckHand |
| What do you feel is the primary responsibility of the Deckhand, aside from the exterior maintenance of the vessel? Being on the spot at any instant to jump on something needs to be done exterior or interior without having to be told. Being proactive and alert, also maintaining a pleasant and positive attitude to be able to get along with everyone no matter the time of day or workload. |

| What do you feel is the most important quality for a successful Deckhand to have? See above |
