My Career in the Maritime Industry
My time working on cruise ships was marked by a diverse and mixed crew, creating a unique environment where different backgrounds and cultures converged. This experience laid the foundation for my approach to fostering community and connection in all my professional endeavors.
After my stint on cruise ships, I transitioned to working on tugboats and oil and gas vessels. These environments were notably more male-dominated, but I embraced the challenge with a strong sense of self and a clear understanding of who I am and what I stand for.
One of the most rewarding aspects of my maritime career was the familial bond that developed among crew members. We were more than colleagues; we were each other’s brothers and sisters. Traveling internationally, we relied on each other for support and camaraderie.
I took on a nurturing role, bringing snacks to meetings and taking initiative in high-pressure situations. This sense of mothering helped create a full community connection, where everyone felt valued and understood. My efforts to bring comfort and awareness to the crew were always appreciated, reinforcing the importance of a supportive environment.
My time at sea taught me the value of community and connection. These experiences have shaped my approach to real estate, where I strive to build strong relationships and foster a sense of belonging for my clients.
