Summary
Experienced Commercial Truck Driver handles different types of loads with skill and efficiency. Well-organized and resourceful with a superior work ethic and 6+ years in logistics.
I have OTR experience and I have traveled to almost all 50 states. I am a hard worker and I love trucking. For the past 2 years, it has been tough for me to find a great trucking company to settle down with, which explains the past 2 years of my job history. Three of the companies that I left, I was able to return with no problem and that shows I have been a great asset to the companies I have worked for. One of my children was having health issues which is why I kept switching from OTR to Local opportunities, to be closer to home during these difficult times. The company I am with now, I have been with for a year and I am seeking a job with the opportunity of advancement, a little extra pay, and consistent miles. I am a great driver and would love to find a company that values its drivers.
