Summary

I'm a skilled laborer with nearly 8 years under my belt. I have experience working on the road. I'm no stranger to 60 hour plus weeks in fact that's my preference. I'm well trained and experienced but definitely still growing. Currently I'm looking for a change in career and and the opportunity to be home more or even work from home.
