In addition to being the Coordinator of the Nova Scotia Seamanship Education Society, I am the Director of Operations for Class Afloat. One of my jobs is the recruitment and hiring of Maritime crew, and I love to hear their stories about how they found their way to the sea, and the experiences they had that made them fall in love and pursue a maritime career. No two stories are alike, but inevitably they are filled with adventure, challenge, and a bit of serendipity.
I am collecting profiles to share on this blog with the intention of showing the incredible diversity in Maritime careers, and to showcase the stories of some incredible seafarers – Bronwen Livingston
