Driven by a passion for culture, adventure and community, Alex dove
head first into the culinary world, immediately moving from Toronto
to Florence, Italy after graduating university to immerse herself in the
Italian food culture. After working in restaurants and as an Au Pair to
three children, Alex had enough confidence in her flexibility and
service capabilities to apply to work for Quarterdeck; first as
Operations Assistant. In this role, she grew the organization skills that
she would later use in her Yacht Chef career on sailing yachts around
the globe. Over the last 6 years, she has developed an exceptionally
high standard of food preparation and presentation, along with an
ever-growing knack for customer service. By paying close attention to
detail, Alex has mastered the art of going above and beyond for her
charter guests through her menu, as well as her roles on board as first
mate, guide, host and friend. Her organization, extensive experience
and cheerful personality make her a key player in the planning and
execution of every charter she runs, resulting in many of her guests
returning to charter with her again.
