My first job out of High School - the U.S. Army. Driving a truck was a required skill set and it would be the beginning of my love for the open road and the trucking industry.

 

1983 – Started trucking by hauling Bull Dozers, Bucket Loaders and other construction equipment

 

1991 - Certified by the National Safety Council

 

1992 - Received the “Knights Of The Highway Award”

 

1999 - Applied for my own FMCSA authority and began my own trucking company

 

2004 - Designed, coordinated development and implemented TruckBytes. A proprietary trucking software for truck owners and trucking companies.

 

In all my years of trucking I have learned a lot of lessons. I never had a mentor who taught me how to be successful owning a truck. As a result, I always seemed to learn the most valuable lessons the hard way. Today, more and more new truck owners come to the trucking industry with little or no experience. I want to help those new to trucking realize their dreams and become successful truck owners.

 

Through LearnToTruck.com, I mentor new truck owners so they can be successful and thrive in the trucking industry. Sharing my experiences I learned both the easy way and the hard way with other truck owners is a commitment I continue to enjoy.

 

2018 - Retired from the US Army - A veteran of both the Gulf War and the War on Terrorism.
