Work History

Transportation Specialist

United Rentals Inc.
  • At this position I currently transport Machinery used for construction and grading, this equipment is from 2,500 lbs to 60,000 lbs, one piece to 25 pieces on a trailer. These sometimes require oversized flagging and route trips that include escorts. This position requires logistical considerations from mountainous conditions to city environments. Coordination of efforts and resources on various platforms to include FAST dispatching systems to ACAD record maintaining and personnel accountability. With my training and experience with 10 years in Law Enforcement from Patrol Officer to Traffic Crash Re-constructionist, and Law Enforcement Driver Instructor I lead safety instructions as it relates to driving. I can also apply real scenarios that make more sense than just a rule but a real life scenario that resignates with them and results in them being safe drivers.
