Crew Profiles

Captain: Brendan Emmons

Born in Northern New Jersey in a small town called Allendale, raised going down the Jersey shore every weekend to enjoy boating. After graduating high school early, he started his own business at the young age of sixteen. After doing this and working for his family business for many years, he decided the ocean was his calling after several trips to Fort Lauderdale. He started out as a delivery mate at the age of eighteen on a trip from Florida to Boston, MA and quickly moved up to the captain position before the trip had even ended. Captaining for 12 years now, he has gained a lot of wisdom and insight into the yachting world. He has run boats in five countries, along with experience from Maine to Key West. Brendan and his wife have been a team since 2017, where they have learned and grown together. Brendan holds his Master 200/500-ton license and looks forward to creating a safe and memorable experience for his charter guests aboard motor yacht Freedom!

Chief Stewardess: Julie Emmons

Born and raised in the small town of Ramsey, New Jersey, Julie grew up enjoying time at the beach and doing water sports. She graduated from SUNY Cortland where she completed her bachelor’s degree in childhood education. After teaching and coaching gymnastics for several years, she met Brendan and decided it was time to join him in the yachting industry. She has completed her STCW training, as well as bartending courses. Julie enjoys reading, hiking, swimming, and water sports in her free time. She is excited to give guests aboard Freedom the experience of a lifetime, by creating a warm and welcoming environment. With Julie’s friendly personality and amazing organizational skills, Freedom’s guests are sure to be enjoying their experience!

Mate: Rebecca DeNisco

Rebecca was born and raised in coastal Massachusetts and has always had a bold sense of adventure. She spent her high school and college summers working as a deckhand for Boston Harbor Cruises and quickly realized her love for boating and the ocean. She went on to receive a business degree at the University of Massachusetts - Amherst and began her career in finance, still spending her nights and weekends out on the water. In 2021, Rebecca left Massachusetts for Florida, looking to experience life beyond the cubicle and turn her boating hobby into a new career. Rebecca has since gotten her 100-ton license, become an advanced PADI SCUBA diver, has cruised to beautiful destinations, and made memories that will last a lifetime! In her free time, Rebecca enjoys a long hike or an even longer road trip. She is excited to be on board M/Y Freedom and share her love of life and yachting with her charter guests!

Deck/Stew: Molly Priebe

Molly grew up in a small town in northern Michigan, with both Lake Huron and the AuSable River just minutes away. She has always loved spending time in the water and the sun and spent much of her time in the summers on kayaks, tubes, and boats. Molly managed a local coffee shop while going to college to get her degree in Technical & Professional Communication as well as Creative Writing from Ferris State University. Once graduated, she decided against a desk job and moved to Fort Lauderdale to get a taste of the world beyond Michigan. Since beginning her career in yachting, she has made lifelong friends, seen the best sunrises and sunsets on the water, and learned more things than she ever could have imagined. She is excited to be a part of the M/Y Freedom team and share her experiences with charter guests!

Lucy was born and raised in the Cayman Islands, where she developed a love for the water. An avid scuba diver from a young age, she holds Advanced Open Water and Nitrox certifications. Lucy completed her early education in England and Florida before graduating from Auburn University with a bachelor's degree in psychology and a minor in art. She spent her summers volunteering at surf camps and working on charters, deepening her passion for the maritime world. After college, pursuing a career on the water felt like a natural choice, leading her to join the crew of M/Y Freedom. In her spare time, Lucy enjoys painting, running, and embarking on new adventures. She is thrilled to be here and cannot wait to contribute to exceptional experiences onboard!

Once back in Charleston, Stephanie joined the Culinary Arts program at Wando High School where she learned her core culinary skills and competed in competitions. She received her ProStart certification after 2 years of training.
Through high school and college, she taught sailing for 8 years as well as working in various restaurants around Charleston. For her study abroad, she circumnavigated the globe on Semester at Sea which exposed her to twelve different countries. Stephanie graduated from College of Charleston in the traditional four years with three majors: Business Administration, Hospitality & Tourism, & Studio Art. Her creativity shines through the presentation of her dishes.
