Summary

After getting into the trucking industry my primary goal has been to add to my skill set involving trucks on and off the road. I'm looking forward to driving under new conditions in new areas and learn about more types of trucks and trailers alike. I am more than willing to move to undergo any training I may require to better myself in the industry. I tend to be right at home and the most comfortable in agriculture related roles as I enjoy the more demanding environment and working outside.
