I have worked in the Superyacht Industry for over 15 years. First I translated technical manuals from Italian to English for the now famous Ferretti Shipyard but I soon found myself involved with the commercial side of yachting when the shipyard made it's first moves into the U.S. market. When Ferretti Craft expanded and started buying other shipyards I was invited to become part of the Sales Office of CRN of Ancona, a historic shipyard building superyachts in steel and aluminium from 40 - 80 meters in length. Within a short time I was appointed as Sales Manager and was instrumental in the development of the Ferretti Custom Line yachts in the United States and Europe.

When Ferretti Group restructured I took the opportunity to leave the yacht building sector and start a career in yacht brokerage, something I had desired for a long time. The 5 years that I have worked as a broker have been exciting and stimulating. My first sale was one of the world's largest privately owned yachts and since then I have enjoyed meeting clients from all over the world and selling yachts from 27m upwards and built by various different builders.

My background in yacht building and association with a large yachting corporation has given me an understanding of many aspects of the business and allows me to listen carefully to client's requests so that I can give them the best possible service. In 2010 I decided to approach Camper and Nicholsons and suggest that I work with them. C&N; is the world's most historic brokerage (founded in 1872) and is respected as the leader in it's field. I was honoured to be accepted as a Camper and Nicholsons broker in Monaco and now have all of the necessary support to offer a top class service.
