Joel Mushi Rakgotho

Columbus,OH

Summary

My name is Joel Mushi Rakgotho, and I am a committed Army Reserve Petroleum Supply Specialist with the 483rd TC Battalion 711th CO (SEAPORT OP) in Concord, CA. My career has been deeply rooted in commercial driving, and I've amassed significant experience from over-the-road driving to training and local CDL driving roles. This hands-on experience has honed my skills and established me as a proficient fuel hauling professional.


In addition to my driving career, I am pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Christian Studies at Grand Canyon University, which enriches my personal and spiritual growth. My dedication to service and protection of our country is a driving force behind my military commitment and my continuous quest for new challenges. I am now seeking opportunities to leverage my expertise in fuel hauling and my military background in a role that offers both professional fulfillment and growth.
