Summary

With a solid background in human services and logistics, I began my career as a Mental Health Worker and advanced to roles such as Activities Specialist and Residential Supervisor. My passion for driving led me to obtain my CDL and work as a Company Driver, where I gained valuable experience in logistics and dispatching. Having enjoyed the office side of the business, I am now applying for the Logistics Supervisor position to leverage my expertise in transportation management, problem-solving, and leadership to contribute to the company’s success.
