Summary

A 3rd generation Walmart driver for 6 years and over 500,000 safe miles. I understand the Walmart culture of respect, integrity, service, and excellence. A former trainer that has experience teaching people who have never driven a truck. A certified Smith System instructor that can teach drivers of all levels of experience the "5 Keys". I excel in high pressure driving situations and can teach that to new drivers to drastically reduce preventable accidents. Strong work ethic with a commitment to safety.
