Modern Yachting Resume Design

A professional headshot must be integrated cleanly into the layout without dominating the page. I’m after a fresh, contemporary aesthetic—clean lines, balanced white space, tasteful typography—optimised for both PDF and print.

Once I send my current résumé and photo, I’d like a first draft within three days, with one revision round to polish the final look.
