Christopher Grady

Dover,United States

Summary

United Stated Navy Veteran with a valid CDL license since 2016. While in the Navy I gained the rank of second-class petty officer which gave me the responsibility of managing and leading 8 personnel. With that responsibility along with leadership courses taken, I learned that there is no specific way to manage, and that each person is unique in their own way. Therefore, I learned to adjust my managing skills so that goals set forth could be accomplished. My passion is transportation which ultimately lead me to obtaining my CDL-A in 2016. Throughout my years in transportation I became a Professional with strong experience in logistics and yard operations. Skilled in maneuvering trailers, coordinating vehicle movements, and maintaining safety protocols. I valued effective teamwork, flexibility, and consistent achievement in operational goals. I am Reliable, adaptable, and focused on delivering efficient solutions in dynamic environments.
