Helping people every day in every way!At a very young age I entered into the transportation industry. Within 2 weeks I was on my own. By the end of the first month I was given phone numbers to grain elevators so I could dispatch myself. A short 5 years later I was driving over the road dispatching myself while pulling a hopper bottom trailer. After 12 years of being a company driver I then attempted self employment by entering into a lease purchase agreement. In less than 3 years I completed the lease purchase; an amazing feat as the success rate is only 2% in doing so. I then incorporated my business running it as such for over 10 years. At that point I was ready to try something different. Lacking a formal degree I decided to go back to school. In a short two years I obtained a dual Associate’s Degree in Financial Services and Agriculture Financial Services. While attending school I also took over farming the family farm while also taking care of ailing parents. I then decided to go for a Bachelor's Degree. Doing this all online I not only completed it but earned a 4.0. Along with the Bachelor's Degree I also received certificates in Business Management, Project Management, and Human Resource Management.I then became a full time employee of a regional retail store as a Service Advisor. After 1 year I obtained certification as an ASE Certified Service Consultant.Seeking to utilize the degrees I had obtained I pursued a position as a Scheduling Supervisor. While working in this position I pursued further education by obtaining several certifications of which are listed below in my profile along with test scores. This was a great educational experience for me however the position didn't align with my interests and passion. I had figured out that my passion was and is in transportation.I then took on my current role of Router for Performance Foodservice. This has brought me back to transportation my long time passion with an added benefit of delivering food to many customers of which I have been a frequent customer. I also am actively involved in local community events along with volunteering for charity organizations.
Listed skills include Financial Analysis, Financial Planning, Finance, Data Analysis, and 11 others.
