Capacità e competenze
I grew up in this ancient famous Biblical seaport town of Kusadasi/Ephesus, where Christianity first established. My step-father was a fisherman who made his own boats. The sea is in my DNA as our lives have depended on her. My brothers all work in the sea - one is based in Beirut for a privileged American-entrepreneur giant. One is a professional fisherman. They introduced me to influential Greek ship makers based in London, and everyone likes me very much to want me to work for them.
Capacità relazionali
I am very experienced and know teaching others is very important. I also know that one needs to communicate strategically (get to know the others with good relationship) to work well.
Capacità organizzative
I handle everything for the ship as its captain. I handle everything for our home so my wife can fully concentrate on becoming a good doctor, albeit our big financial challenges through these years. My goal is to love and see to success so i handle one thing at a time, according to its priority.
Competenze tecniche
At home, I fix almost everything from sinks to ceilings to installing light fixtures to floor leaks. Computers: for pre-sail safety/weather checks only (not very savvy).
