Summary
I am a highly skilled Advanced Tankerman with extensive experience in safely managing cargo operations across various marine environments, notably with Dupre Marine Transportation, where I learned and implemented Kirby’s policies and procedures. I was recognized for exceptional safety practices, including ten nominations for Kirby’s no harm award and a flawless spill record. I demonstrate unparalleled attention to detail and efficient time management, while training deckhands to advanced levels. I believe i can be a great asset to Kirby as a port captain.
