Additional Information
In March of 2022, I underwent bariatric weight loss surgery, where i have lost (to date) over 176lbs. This has been a life-changing transition and I am looking to begin a new career where i can maintain a high level of activity to compliment my new lifestyle. I overcome many health issues over the last 2 1/2 years that have prevented me from active employment, and after several years of hard work, I am proud to have been given the best medical review in over 30 years and have been medically cleared to return to work. I no longer meet the medical requirements to maintain a Class A Commercial Drivers License so I cannot return to truck driving.
I am anxious and excited to return to the workforce and begin my new career.
