Christelle grew up on a farm in South Africa, where her family cultivated apples, pears, peaches, prunes, onions, and raised sheep. From a young age, she developed a deep love for nature and was often found in the garden. The youngest of three, with two older brothers, Christelle shares a close bond with her family, especially through their shared passion for sports and staying active, something she values for both physical and mental well-being.

While studying Business Management and Marketing Science, she worked at the prestigious Rust en Vrede wine estate, gaining experience in fine dining and hosting wine tastings for international guests. After completing her degree, Christelle moved to the U.S. to work as an au pair, then transitioned into the yachting industry in 2023, inspired by friends already in the field.

Since then, she has worked on M/Y HIGHLANDER, M/Y ROCKIT, M/Y QUEEN D, and currently serves as Chief Stewardess aboard M/Y NAMASTE.

Her goal is always to ensure that everyone onboard feels relaxed, cared for, and truly able to disconnect from daily stress.

Her travels have taken her to beautiful destinations including Saint Barths, the BVI’s, the Bahamas, Turks and Caicos, and Puerto Rico—though Saint Barths and the BVI’s remain her favorites for their natural beauty and vibrant energy. Outside of yachting, Christelle is passionate about personal growth and adventure. A highlight was hiking the Salkantay Trail to Machu Picchu, a major bucket-list achievement.

Looking ahead, she hopes to grow in the yachting industry, eventually transition to a remote career using her degree, and one day open her own jewellery shop, a long held dream. Her vision for the future includes building a home surrounded by nature, starting a family, and living a peaceful, fulfilling life.
