I am a young woman from Southern Africa who grew up in Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
I spent most of my time by the ocean in Mozambique, enjoying varied water-based activities, particularly deep-sea fishing. In Zimbabwe, I enjoyed swimming and water polo, even representing Zimbabwe at many international galas.
As you guessed, I am happiest on the water, which is my main driving factor for joining the yachting industry.
Professionally I am a dedicated, hard-working young lady who can work well individually or as part of a team.
I am looking for a position where I can work hard and grow my industry knowledge. After completing a season in the Mediterranean I now know what I am looking for and am ready to hit the ground running.
My hobbies include, water sports such as swimming, waterpolo, jet skiing, wake boarding, tubing and knee boarding. Other hobbies of mine are reading and playing hockey whether it be field or indoor hockey. I love the out doors, exploring different countries and learning about other cultures.

I began as a deckstew onboard a private motor yacht. Through out the season I began to do more extensive work on the interior side, I was an all rounding stewardess. I was involved in the service, housekeeping and laundry on board. I have much knowledge in the fields and am excited to start my next season with full force.
During my time at Cape Town yacht services I carried out many tasks such as cleaning the interior and exterior of at least 3 to 6 boats a day. On the exterior I cleaned the windows, did two-part teaking, detailing of stainless steel and washed maybe wash downs. In the interior side of things I made beds, washed dishes, cleaned carpets, removed scuff marks off leather and did toilet paper origami. Other things I did was inventory checks and sorting, sailboat preparation’s as well as charter preparation’s too.
During my time doing jet ski charters I helped with launching and retrieving jet skis. Assisting guests with safety procedures, docking jet skis and performing wash downs. Taking guests out allowed me to gain guest interaction too.
