Summary

As you can see I have tons of experience in a few different working fields. Over the years the common theme in all of my jobs are customer service based. With that being said I have over 10 plus years of being in some sort customer service field dating back to my first job when I was 14 years old. I have made it my goal in every job I have done to be in some sort of management or training so I can spread my ideas and goals to the right people to improve or help change to get that second set of fresh eyes on a problem or future issue. I would describe myself as a strong leader and problem solver that gets too dedicated to his work and fellow colleagues that is eager to jump in and help make a steady and safe work environment.

Additional Information

I am looking to getting out of the "Professional" field for multiple reasons and I can explain better in person. Trucking has been fun and you make a bunch of money but I have noticed I am away from home a lot more. Another thing is that my schedule is not ideal to start a family, In my opinion having a job is not all about the money its how you get to live and spend time with those people that care about you. Trucking is not for everyone and that's part of trucking 101. I want a career that I can come in and bring joy to peoples lives and just look forward to my day. I think this is the best next step in my future and I am excited to see where this takes me. Thank you and have a great day.
