Summary

Dynamic and dependable truck driver with extensive experience in various divergent roles, recognized for maintaining an excellent driving record and ensuring safety compliance. Skilled in operating heavy machinery and adept at problem-solving, I excel in high-pressure environments, demonstrating flexibility and leadership to enhance team performance and operational efficiency.

I have had, as most of my age, several different careers, starting out in earth moving and then general freight to moving in to CNC machining, production management and then after a midlife reassessment moving back into the logistics arena.

My life and interests have given me many skills in regard to mechanical knowledge , problem solving

and the ability to ensure a task gets done.
