From humble beginnings in the Pacific Northwest to orchestrating lavish yacht charters for billionaires and A-list celebrities, Graham’s journey epitomizes the fusion of passion, adventure, and entrepreneurial spirit. Graham’s affinity for the sea was cultivated amidst the breathtaking landscapes of the Pacific Northwest. From a young age, he was drawn to the allure of maritime exploration, spending countless hours navigating the pristine waters of his hometown.

Passion for the Sea

However, it was a transformative voyage aboard the historic S/S SORLANDET at the age of 18 that ignited his passion for seafaring adventures.

Following his maritime odyssey, Graham embarked on a new chapter in Nairobi, Kenya, where he dedicated himself to humanitarian efforts, building schools, and empowering local communities. It was during this time that Graham’s entrepreneurial spirit began to take root as he recognized the transformative power of education and the importance of fostering connections across borders and cultures. Driven by a thirst for knowledge and a desire to explore the intersection of business and adventure, Graham pursued a degree in Business Administration at Dalhousie University while continuing to immerse himself in the world of yachting. His six years at sea provided invaluable insights into the inner workings of the private yachting industry, laying the foundation for his subsequent career in superyacht brokerage.

In 2016, Graham’s journey led him to Worth Avenue Yachts, a global leader in luxury yacht brokerage, where he quickly distinguished himself as a rising star in the industry.
