DRIVER
Summary
After 29 years in the transportation industry I have learned many things. From Simple inspection of vehicles to repair and operational costs. This industry has brought me from pulling gooseneck trailers with a pick up truck to hauling 90,000 lb pieces of equipment on Removable Gooseneck trailers. I have come from not understanding why my air conditioner won't be repaired to knowing exactly why I have to wait for said repair. I know a great deal about this industry and I enjoy.learning what I still don't know and I look forward to continuing my education through hard work and learning from the people around me.
