SecondWind's founder and CEO is well known throughout the shipping industry, both in her role as an expert witness and as a work-out specialist for problem shipping loans. Jean has been in the shipping industry since 1973; her broad commercial experience has covered dry bulk, containers, tankers, gas and passenger vessels.
