I started working on boats as a steward over 10 years ago and climbed up through the hawsepipe; which means I achieved my licenses and endorsements by earning my time at sea. Although I spend most of my time in Lake Union, on anything from a paddle board to a tall ship, I’ve also crossed the Pacific and crewed on vessels from Central America to Alaska. I’m most passionate about empowering women and teaching the next generation about the maritime industry.
