I was born on Martha's Vineyard, which is an island off the coast of Massachusetts. I grew up on the water my whole life because my family has always had multiple boats. My first job on the water was at 14 as a dock master for the Town of Tisbury HarborMaster, and stayed with them for four years running the pump-out. Then I started my job at Safe Harbor where I was a Yard-hand, which mostly consisted of Cleaning,Bottom painting, buff and wax, shrink wrapping, testing and delivering boats and other random yard jobs. Now that I am in school in Fort Myers Florida, I work for Holiday Adventure Tours as a Captain running pontoon boats.
