CAPT. KATE MCCUE
First American Female Cruise Ship
Captain

Representation matters & we

have a responsibility to use our
platforms to show others what's
possible because if you can "sea"
it, you can be it!

First & Only Indian Female Maritime
Pilot

We need to continue to support,

lift up, encourage and mentor more
women in maritime. It has been a
great realization that unless we
advocate for women in maritime,
meaningful progress won’t be
made.

Executive Producer of Shipping Podcast

To include women in a diverse

workforce is not women’s
responsibility, it’s a leadership
issue. Inclusion & Diversity needs
committed leaders 365 days a
year.

NIDHI WALIA
2nd Officer on Merchant Vessels

True gender equality will be when

we are just seafarers and not
female seafarers. Until then, let’s
celebrate the small steps towards
reaching that goal.

I am glad to see the maritime

industry being more supportive
towards female seafarers and I
hope to have more female
colleagues in the future.

KC CHIN SOOD
2nd Officer on Merchant Ships

The weight on our shoulder to

represent our gender in a male
dominated industry is tough.
However, I am grateful for this
journey that forged me into who
I am today.

First Indian Female Sr. ETO

A lot has changed in the shipping

sector, however, we still need to break
the old male-dominated mindset of
the industry. Now females are
succeeding in all ranks and vessels
and will continue to do so.

ADRIANA GAVA
2nd Officer on Container Ships

Women empower other women,

especially those at sea by sharing
thoughts, experiences and by
sticking together. That is how the
world becomes a better place and
life a better voyage.
