Maritime Transport Expert | Blue Economy Specialist | Marine Safety Consultant
With over 30 years of hands-on experience in the maritime industry, I have built a comprehensive and dynamic career that spans shipboard operations, shore-based management, and strategic consultancy. My professional journey began at sea, where I gained practical insight into vessel operations, followed by progressive leadership roles within major shipping companies. This path has allowed me to accumulate deep expertise across a broad spectrum of maritime activities, including shipping operations, commercial chartering, fleet and agency management, fuel supply, and logistics coordination for both bulk and container sectors.
Today, I serve as a recognized Maritime Transport Expert, registered officially in the field. I advise stakeholders on matters related to maritime transport strategy, marine safety regulations, and the development of sustainable maritime practices aligned with the principles of the Blue Economy. My work emphasizes integrating economic efficiency with environmental responsibility, helping both public and private entities navigate regulatory frameworks while improving operational performance.
Through my consulting office, I continue to support the industry by offering expert analysis, training, and practical solutions tailored to the evolving challenges of global shipping and marine logistics.
