On 07/29/2023 i have gotten a D.W.I resulting in me losing my C.D.L and losing my job, my driving privilege has been reduced to having a breath machine in my personal vehicle.
I am also a divorced father with a 8 year old son whom i have visitation every other weekend.
i'm a member of a local church here in Russellville and also involved in the Mens Jail Ministry at the Pope Co. Dentition Center. and also im involved with delivering food to the homeless and other local families.
I have enjoyed the time I get to spend with my mother and helping her along this long journey but unfortunately I do not get paid and so therefor im seriously seeking career opportunities
