A career consisting of various hands-on trades in a multitude of industrial and transportation related fields. The last two and a half years I have driven Class A hazmat tanker, flat bed, lowboy, and heavy haul/oversize loads. My industrial profession began as a welder and fabricator serving the commercial manufacturing business in Northern Virginia. I transitioned into trucking from the mining industry where I spent three years developing skills as a plant operator, mechanic, and as a team member of a lean manufacturing silica mine and processing facility.
