Preferred Fleet(s): Any
Sailing Experience or Comments: I'm a motivated and fast-learning sailor who picked up sailing during college and quickly developed a passion for both dinghy and keelboat racing. While still early in my sailing journey, I’ve already participated in a range of regattas and races, gaining hands-on experience as both skipper and crew across several competitive events — including the Southern Collegiate Offshore Regatta (J/120 – Jib Trimmer & Main Sheet Jumper), the 2025 Lipton Cup (Evelyn 32-3 – Jib Trimmer & Main Sheet Jumper), and multiple collegiate dinghy regattas such as the SAISA Top 18 Invite (FJ – Crew) and the Florida Trophy (FJ – Crew). I’m seeking a crewing position where I can continue building my skills, contribute to a dedicated team, and deepen my knowledge of competitive sailing.

Sailing Experience or Comments: ASA up to 106 & 107 (cel nav) Got very close to crew an offshore passage Norfolk-Bermuda-St Martin in Nov 2024. We waited on the boat for a week for a decent weather window and eventually I ran out of time. It's still something I want to do though. Otherwise, I'm new to Marblehead since March 2025 and I'm looking to spend time on the water and make new friends! Available most week-ends and some week-days.

Preferred Fleet(s): Any
Sailing Experience or Comments: I recently completed the Clipper Round the World Race 23-24, sailing as a crew member and watch leader on several offshore legs. I also hold a Coastal Skipper certificate and have experience with inshore and offshore sailing. I didn’t grow up sailing dinghies and know that’s a common background for many racers, but I’ve spent a lot of time on deck in offshore conditions and work well as part of a team. I’m confident handling lines, trimming sails, standing watch, and learning quickly in new situations.
