Summary
I have more than 12 years experience as a dispatcher and then transitioned in to a different aspect of logistics by
becoming a CDL driver. I have been a professional driver since 2006. My time as dispatcher improved my competency

attention to detail and consistency with staying compliant with regulations to remain legally eligible to work.
