Denizen of the Gold Coast and global citizen, Mitchell Torrens was born into boating. Both his parents were champion water-skiers with world records to their names, and growing up on the coast meant he took to the water with gusto – boating before he could walk and securing his boating license on his 14th birthday. Now, as Director of Torrens Luxury Collection (TLC), Torrens is diversifying the business and carving out his own extraordinary path.
Ocean magazine: How has growing up on the Gold Coast influenced your outlook and career?
Mitchell Torrens:
I was born to remarkable parents. My mother, Sharon, underwent two kidney transplants and was the first woman to have a child after receiving a transplant. Her journey instilled in me an appreciation for life’s precious moments.
