My story with the sea began over 20 years ago, when I discovered that my true calling was in the luxury yachting industry. Since then, I have dedicated my career to working on yachts and private villas, specializing as Chief Stewardess in the Caribbean and European circuits.
I hold a degree in Modern Languages with a business focus, graduated from American Field Service Switzerland-Venezuela, and worked as a mid-term consultant for the United Nations (UNICEF). This international experience shaped my vision of professional service and operational excellence. I also hold the Maritime Security Awareness Certification (FL) and was a volunteer member of the Terry Fox Runs Committee at the Canadian Embassy in Caracas.
After years sailing and perfecting my craft, I decided to share everything I learned by founding G-Consulting in Saint Maarten.
For over 15 years, I have been an educational mentor in the Caribbean, supporting Spanish-speaking professionals in their development within this industry.
Operating fluently in Spanish, English, and French, I bridge language barriers and cultural nuances to serve crew and yachts across the multilingual Caribbean and Mediterranean markets.
I am the author of the book "El Mar de mi Vida" (available on Amazon), where I share my journey, challenges, and lessons learned on the path to becoming a Chief Stewardess. This book is a testament that with determination, hard work, and proper guidance, it is possible to achieve our most ambitious dreams.
From G-Consulting SXM, I combine practical experience with a passion for teaching to help people enter and thrive in the yachting industry of the French and English Caribbean. I firmly believe that professional success is not a matter of chance, but the result of informed decisions, strategic training, and expert guidance.
If you are ready to build a solid career in the yachting industry, I am here to guide you every step of the way.

El Mar de mi Vida is much more than a biography: it's a navigation chart for those who dream of building a career in the luxury yachting industry.
Gabriela Bolívar shares her extraordinary journey from her beginnings in Venezuela to becoming Chief Stewardess on some of the world's most exclusive yachts.
