Crew Profile

Chef Ameda
I discovered my passion for cooking at an early age, inspired by my families' traditional recipes and the vibrant culinary culture of their hometown in the Dominican Republic. Born into a family where food was a central part of everyday life, I quickly developed a knack for creating delicious meals that brought people together.

After graduating from culinary school in St. Thomas, I decided to hone my skills by transitioning to maritime learning multiple culinary techniques and mastering the art of blending flavors from diverse cultures.

I was given an opportunity at a luxury yacht charter company, where I cemented my position as a charter chef. Specializing in creating bespoke dining experiences for client's aboard luxury yachts, I combined my ability in seafood and coastal cuisine with a flair for presentation that delights the senses.

My menus truly reflect my commitment to using fresh, locally sourced ingredients wherever the yacht sails. Whether it is crafting a gourmet seafood platter from the day's catch or preparing a multi-course tasting menu under the stars, my dedication to culinary excellence and attention to detail ensure that every meal is a memorable experience for my guests.

When I am not in the galley, I enjoy exploring new ports of call, discovering hidden culinary gems, and sharing my passion for food with my family. My end goal is to continue pushing the boundaries of yacht dining by creating unforgettable moments one meal at a time.
