Career Inspiration! Interview with an Interior Manager – YPI 2020
So I recently chatted with one of the top interior managers in the industry! The amazing Meeli and asked her to share her journey in yachting, from where she began to how she got to top of the Interior!!
She also shares her tips for our aspiring Junior Stews coming into the industry…..
My name is Meeli and I was born in a little University town in South-Estonia. It was kind of self-evident that I joined the academic world for some philosophical studies until the graduation from Theological department in 2003. During all that time I was working as gallery manager in a tiny hot glass studio in the historical Old Town of Tallinn. Obviously, all this experience of art, history, ancient languages and religion was as far from seafaring as anyone could imagine. Although having spent most of my childhood summer holidays by the sea, I was super uncomfortable with actually being on board a ship and could take on a few hours ferry ride only with the help of a pint. Or two.
