I knew the first time that I experienced yachting in the Greek Islands that this was the industry I wanted to work in. Since then I have been deeply immersed in a range of different aspects of yachting, honing my skills over the last 25 years across a raft of roles, including a long stint at Burgess Yachts, to know every detail of what makes the perfect superyacht experience.
I am very proud that today I am one of a handful of female co-founders in the industry. When Neil and I established Yomira, it was based on delivering pin point service levels whilst also taking a different, more emotional approach to chartering a superyacht. Why clients are keen to charter a yacht, what they are hoping to achieve on their holiday, depending on who they are travelling with, and where. We believe service should be at a higher standard than ever before – combine this with our extensive knowledge of yachts and crew and years of cruising areas all over the world and you have the ideal combination to create the most extraordinary yachting vacation.
Matching the right yacht and right crew to our clients is just the start, we consider every single detail. It’s about putting the inspiration and excitement front and centre to create their bespoke superyacht experience.
There is nothing more satisfying to us than when a client calls after a charter and simply says – ‘thank you, you got that spot on.’
