Dechand/Personal Trainer.

Summary

Hardworking and adaptable individual with a diverse skill set spanning fitness, education, agriculture, and content creation. With five years of experience working on a farm in the U.S. on an H2A visa, I developed strong physical endurance, problem-solving abilities, and hands-on skills in irrigation, machinery operation, and harvesting—all of which translate seamlessly into the demands of a deckhand role.

Beyond my agricultural background, I spent three years as a student teacher, where I coached sports, led PE classes, assisted in marketing, and took on full teaching responsibilities. This experience strengthened my leadership, communication, and teamwork skills, making me highly effective in guest interaction and crew dynamics.

As a certified personal trainer, I have experience in online coaching, strength and conditioning, HIIT, mobility, and nutrition, allowing me to provide tailored training for both guests and crew. Additionally, I work as a model for Boerboel Wear, one of South Africa’s leading outdoor clothing brands, and have a keen eye for photography, with skills in capturing high-quality content—valuable for yacht social media and guest experiences.

Driven, coachable, and always eager to learn, I bring a strong work ethic, physical fitness, and a versatile skill set that makes me an asset on any yacht.
