The free-spirited Brianna Adekeye joined the yachting world as a stewardess in 2014. She was actually on vacation – on a “booze cruise” in Marina del Ray when she picked up an interest in yachting.
By the time her vacation ended and she went back home, she was sure that her next career venture would be on a yacht. Thus, she began certifications to become a stewardess for yachts. After a few years of gathering experience, Brianna was scouted by an agent and she joined Below Deck in 2017. She debuted on the show’s 5th season which first aired on September 5, 2017.
Coupled with her passion for travel and love of nature, her new career venture seemed a perfect one until she landed a tough job that made her change her mind.
After working on a very large yacht as a stew, which she described as her most challenging gig on the job, Brianna decided to go freelance. The yacht she worked on at the time is a 98-meter and she was placed under a strict chief stew. The experience left her disconcerted about being a yachtie.
