First Mate (and co-Owner) Ryan grew up in Juneau and in the waters around Southeast Alaska. In 2018 Ryan opened Devil’s Club Brewing Company in Juneau. Devil’s Club has won many awards for its beer and food and is the highest reviewed brewery in Alaska. With the brewery up and running, Ryan’s interest turned back to the sea, and along the way he even became a helicopter pilot! His passions for maritime adventures, Alaskan cuisine and showing off the beauty of his home state makes for perfect fit on ALASKAN STORY.
Chef Sterling grew up in Kake, a small village nestled in southeast Alaska, where he learned to live off the land and sea. It was there that his love for food and adventure first took root. With nearly a decade of experience in the culinary industry, Sterling has honed his skills in all types of kitchens, from dive bars to fine dining establishments. His versatile background has led him to roles as a private chef on Prince of Wales Island and now aboard ALASKAN STORY.
Stewardess “Cath” (Catherine) grew up working on her family cattle ranch in northeastern Oregon. Her upbringing “working the cattle chutes and driving grain trucks instilled a rock-solid work ethic, based on strong family values and the rewards of an honest day’s work.” Cath has managed a fine dining restaurant and lodge outside Lassen Volcanic National Park in the Southern Cascade mountain range and was a ski guide in Montana and at Alaska’s Alyeska resort. She writes, “Exploring the ocean environment of Alaska is my dream job. My goal is to use my skill set to make certain every guest’s experience is truly once in a lifetime; or at least until they return to ALASKAN STORY!” Catherine has been the stewardess on ALASKAN STORY since 2021. She calls Juneau home and spends her time off adventuring in the mountains of the western United States.
