Martina Valkova

Dear Sir/Madam

I am a 38-year-old female from the Czech Republic. I have been in the professional maritime industry since 2010 working as Chief stewardess on a variety of superyachts.

I have 12 years’ experience in hospitality and service, and, I have studied and worked in England, the USA, Italy, Denmark and France.
I have studied different languages at international schools in England and France. I have a passion for travel, new experiences, learning new things, people and culture.

In my spare time I enjoy art and have created many paintings. I am also a passionate horse rider and show jumper. I enjoy sport in general.

I have crossed the Atlantic by sea and cruised the Mediterranean and Caribbean waters.

I have travelled extensively in my life and worked very hard. I have spent lots of time at sea, working long hours, but now I am changing my life career which will allow me to be land-based again, be very flexible and most importantly allowed to grow.

I started to move on with my life career in the IT field. And now I am in my second year of Bsc Computer Science Cyber security pathway .

I think in IT there is so much potential and it will motivate me to do my best. I will be able to grow professionally and personally.
The boundaries of IT are continually being pushed and this means more opportunities to learn things and new jobs. There is always career progression in the established areas of the IT industry.

I would like to find an interesting position in cybersecurity which will help me to gain experience.

Finally, I believe that I have found a programme that will allow me to achieve something interesting both in life and professionally and I am very happy that soon my dream will be my reality!

Yours faithfully Martina Valkova
