About

I am a safety-first, detail oriented, fast learner. I worked as a freelance musician for 20 years, and am breaking into the trucking industry. I earned my commercial driver's license in July 2023, and got my training through Schneider National Inc. I have moved on to pursue further opportunities in the industry.

    I was both a Regional OTR driver, and a driver for the Target Dedicated Account. Responsibilities included daily pre, intra, and post trip inspections of tractor and trailer to insure both were always road worthy, reporting any faults to my dispatcher. My primary responsibility was taking loaded trailers from the DC in Oconomowoc WI to targets all over the state, northern IL, and the UP, drop n hooking, and bringing the empty trailer back to the DC. This occured multiple times a day.
