- Cruise Travel Consultant (ICCA Accredited)

After finishing my HSC in 2006 I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life. I travelled to Thailand, got the 'Travel Bug' and when I returned I couldn’t think of anything I would rather do than travel! So I attended Loftus TAFE and completed my Certificate III in Wholesaling, Certificate III in International Retail Fares and Galileo Certificate, and graduated in 2007. I then got a job in a Surf/Ski company working as a wholesale consultant, and shortly after starting I took over managing a hotel in Thredbo owned by the company. At the end of 2008 I travelled extensively throughout Asia and became interested in the Cruise industry, and now here I am at Ecruising. Since starting at here, I have had the opportunity to cruise onboard the Pacific Jewel to New Caledonia in 2010, Pacific Pearl on a Comedy Cruise in 2011 and Sun Princess from Sydney to Brisbane in 2010 and have also attended ship inspections onboard P&O UK’s Oriana and Arcadia, Cunard’s Queen Mary 2, Royal Caribbean’s Rhapsody of the Seas and P&O’s Pacific Sun, Pacific Jewel, Pacific Pearl and Princess Cruises', Dawn Princess. I won the 2010 ICCA Rising Star Award from the International Cruise Council Australia, a most converted award!
