Manager Assistant

CAREER SUMMARY

After being in the truck and international airfreight business for 19 years

as a driver, I have made a transition into the film industry in Michigan.

In the last year in a half I have had the opportunity to learn the location

side of the film industry from some of the best managers and co-workers in

the business. I have successfully managed a crew of product specialist,

emcees and brand ambassadors for a Ford Motor marketing event on the west

coast. I have also worked as a dispatcher at the Ford Rouge plant and would

welcome the opportunity to work back in the shipping industry.
