| Why did you leave your most recent position? Because I was employed as a summer mechanical engineering research student and my contract expired at the beginning of the University holidays. |

I enjoy fishing, water sports (such as wake boarding and surfing) and learning new languages and about new cultures. |

I intend to make a career out of the yachting industry, particularly as an engineer (I intend to acheive the highest level Y1 certificate). |

| Describe what type of situation on board you feel you would fit in best? I am a friendly, outgoing person who gets along well with people. I will do any task, no matter how difficult it is. Overall, I think that I would fit in well on the deck or in the engine room. |
