The former Cruise Services Manager at Port Everglades, Curry has a broad range of maritime experience in both the cruise and cargo sectors. She is a former Assistant Operations Manager with Florida Transportation Services and also worked as a Traffic Manager with G&G Shipping and Export. As the Port’s Director of Operations, Curry will be responsible for personnel, vessel traffic coordination, and maintenance of port facilities, roads, and parks.
