Shannon grew up on the mainland just outside of Philadelphia. In the summers, she would visit her uncle at his 42′ sport fishing yacht in Maryland. They would make their way down the Chesapeake Bay and stop to explore the islands along the inlet. Later, she studied environmental engineering at the University of Alabama (roll tide!), while working as a server/bartender.

Since then, Shannon has spent most of her time exploring the Caribbean tropics and the historical northeast US. In her spare time, she enjoys beach days, discovering new areas, finding creative outlets, and socializing with friends. She has joined Sol Shine as sole stewardess after years of learning from the best chief stewards in the industry. Her creativity thrives through lavish table decor and mixology. Ready to craft your favorite cocktails and maintain a pristine interior, you’ll find that no detail is too small for her eye. One day, she hopes to combine her knowledge of environmental engineering and yachting to design more sustainable and eco-friendly vessels, so we can continue to explore and protect marine life for generations to come.
