Please tell us a bit about yourself
I’m one of the Skippers at the Tall Ships Youth Trust and I have been here for 10 years. I started out as Mate (1st paid Mate) and then progressed to Skipper. Before my sailing career started, I worked in the City of London for a Merchant Bank and did that for 21 years. I enjoy watching my local football team Gillingham, travel and spending time with friends.
