  • Experience

    • Maersk Line, Limited

      Jun 2018 - Nov 2018
      Cadet

      As a cadet with Maersk Line, LTD, my primary role was to educate myself on the shipping industry while learning about container ship operations aboard the Maersk Montana. I also became a member of a bridge watch team while aboard and assisted the deck department in cargo and maintenance operations.

    • Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd.

      Mar 2019 - May 2019
      Cadet

      While employed by Norwegian Cruise Line, I was expected to familiarize myself with the cruise industry and the specifics of passenger ship operations. While aboard the Pride of America, I worked on lifeboats and safety systems, line handling operations, and became very familiar with Wärtsilä SAM Electronics' wheelhouse technology.

    • US Ocean, LLC

      May 2019 - Oct 2019
      Cadet

      While working on the M/V Ocean Glory, I refined my skills from other ships and classes to put them to the test. I kept a proper navigational watch, stood cargo watch, and operated shipboard cargo cranes rated to lift 450 tons. As a tramp ship able to carry many types of cargo, I experienced firsthand the work associated with the bidding process of determining what cargoes can be carried, as well as significant time with cargo handling and securing.
