Culinarily trained in college, I spent years in the restaurant industry around Canada.
Later as a private chef in a Costa Rican beach town, I developed a tropical-gourmet style with Latino and south East Asian inspirations, and a health-forward focus.
I had become more interested in working abroad.
Yachting was recommended and seemed like a strong direction. I was compelled to wrap up my knives and head out to sea. It’s been more than five years, and an amazing set of experiences in places that I can't imagine I might have ever visited if not for yachting.
My craft has evolved in the Mediterranean, Caribbean islands, Latin America and Canada!s Pacific coast. Every locality provides different inspiration. My passion for sourcing regional products and creating fresh and fantastic world dishes continues to propel my work.
I have in recent years switched to a freelance career and continue to enjoy the varied opportunities.

The yacht was the ideal size and that he was incredibly impressed with Cpt. Will and how he was so communicative and that Courtney was so great with their girls and the cocktails and that the food was delicious!
if NAMASTE go to the Med in summer 2024, we would be very interested in chartering her again.
Loved working with Danielle to plan our amazing vacation in the Caribbean.
She was super patient and helpful during these trying times of COVID - but once we were able to get our trip booked — we had a FABULOUS time.
Namaste was the perfect catamaran for us - the crew went above and beyond to take care of our every need.
We all felt so pampered not only by the service but the fabulous food prepared for us each day by Lola and served with a super smile by Rachel.
Will and Brett helped us plan our fun days of adventures whether on land or playing with all the toys in the water.
This was definitely one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever had and look forward to planning the next trip.
The client just told me it was an exceptional trip! They had a wonderful time.
They were full of praise and only had positive things to say.
Thanks to everyone and I look forward to working with you again in the future.
The attention to detail that you put into this charter was incredible and the whole itinerary and restaurant organization was perfect !
Honestly, there was absolutely nothing wrong with this charter, the ladies had a fantastic time, ate super well and you definitely created a memorable holiday!
What a wonderful and unforgettable experience we had onboard of your beautiful yacht !
High service, incredible dining, thanks to all of you !
Biggest complaint – constantly disapearing beach toarls
Biggest problem – to choose next spot from never ending natural beauty
Biggest challenge – to finish breakfast, then lunch, then dinner…
In short – we do not want to leave and for sure looking forward to next trip onboard !

Broker notes:
‘’ Dear R.,
I hope you are well in this unusual times. For us it was hard to get back to Covid normality after 2 weeks of fantastic, pandemic free vacation.
We had a wonderful time. The Namaste Crew is really outstanding.
Willo is a great captain, one of the best! Georgia is really great, she cared in such an easy way and new so quick the preferences of every single of us and Jo is an amazing cook.
Even if she is no professional, she provided us with such healthy and delicious meals 3 to 4 times a day, and did not miss to amaze us at some occasions.
All together we had an amazing holiday, thank you very much R., for making this possible, especially in this crazy times.
There had been some problems to start this, thanks for helping us to go, we are so glad that this worked out!
Now we are back to lockdown and homeschooling. So it is fantastic to have something so nice to remember’’

K & A
What a truly magical si days ! We arrived tired, hungry and in a desperate need of true break and boy did you deliver !
It was true magic being a part of Namaste for these 6 days. The sailing, sun, care you all took for us magic potions that Georgia created and divine desserts (and everything else) that Adrienne whipped up for us were what the doctor ordered. We can’t wait to return !
All our best, C & T
Thank you for making this a dream vacation for us ! Each of you put so much care into everything. You did to make this such a special family trip. You planned so much for us and yet every day felt so relaxed. Four days felt like two weeks away !
Thank you for somehows anticipating every vacation wish what we had. From seabob adventures to snorkeling and seing tortles, tender rides to see ship wrecks, kayacking, exploring, afternoon cocktails in the jacuzzi and ever a movie right on the fly bridge complete with popcorn ! How we had room for popcorn. I don’t know because Adrian’s insanely good food had us all but licking our plates at every meal. It was though she knows the exact fantasy meals to put in front of us. And all the super special treats from homemade pastries, bread to out of this world desserts.
We honestly have never tasted such delicious food clearly prepared with love.
Georgia your way of taking care of our every need without us ever seing you do itw as magical. We would turn around and where would be a tray of beautiful and delicious afternoon drinks or we would go back to our room to change and poof beds were made. I don’t know how youd id think so quickly.
Sean your expert tender driving made what anyone lese would have turned back from onto an adventure what ended with amazing snorekling in turquoise waters. What you do always pulling out all the toys and taking the girls for the tube ride of their lives. Not to mention seabobs adventures we will talk about forever.
Willo, you make Namaste a family and a fantasy world wrapped into one ! Surprising us with pumpkins and acarving contest was one of the weetest memories we will have from the trip. With Georgia’s Halloween decoration and delicious desserts the last night was the best halloween party any of us will ever have been to.
Thank you all for making such a special trip.
And thanks so much to just be able to spend time with all of you but you did everything possible to make this a trip of a life for us all.
