Summary

I am an accomplished Hazmat Semi Driver with Groendyke Transportation, recognized for achieving zero accidents through exceptional safe driving practices and meticulous attention to detail. I am proficient in hazardous materials handling and effective decision-making, consistently optimizing routes to minimize delays and enhance operational efficiency. I have a strong work ethic and commitment to transportation safety. I have warehouse experience operating manual and electric pallet jacks, as well as forklift operation. I would somewhat frequently work 13 hr nights, and I did so over 8 years with no accidents and 1 ticket. I take pride each day in making it to my destination safely. I drove denver traffic for 8 years and I have had countless close calls with people not paying attention. I take driving as the most serious responsibility that there is, especially when so many are distracted or intoxicated.
