Deckhand/Stewardess Hailey Braham – After graduating from Temple University and teaching k-12 Art at an alternative school, servicing both at-risk youth and Special Education students for 6 years, I found myself ready for a major life change. My love for adventure, camaraderie, and the outdoors was always fulfilled during my summers as a counselor and Lake Director at an elite sleep-away camp, so I sought out on a mission to find that same kind of happiness on the water all year round. As a self-proclaimed dessert connoisseur, plant lady, and animal lover from a small town in Pennsylvania, entering the yachting industry has truly elevated my life in many new and exciting ways. I look forward to sharing that excitement with guests through interior and exterior service as our vessel deck/stew!
