My Story

I have always had a sense of adventure, a love for travel and meeting new people. After a year studying in Canada and a ski season in France I decided the next step was join the yachting industry. Having explored the world for 8 years, including some of the most beautiful far flung islands in French Polynesia, I thought it was time to go shore side and join Y.CO.  
 
It’s fantastic living on the Riviera. In my spare time I love to visit Italy for the scenery, culture and food (maybe some wine too)! Exercise, food and time with my friends are my biggest passion. I love to cook (I was a Chef on board for a number of years) and in the winter you can find me skiing and soaking up the breath-taking views and atmosphere in the mountains.
