I'm a work-oriented Deck Hand with 4 years of experience working on floating vessels of varying size and function and a team-oriented worker assisting in different roles when needed.
I am currently pursuing a Degree of Science from SUNY Maritime College. The completion of my degree will come with a Third Mate license.
Classes I have taken include Celestial Navigation and Basic FireFighting. These classes have fine tuned my experiences as an deckhand.
