**** **** *** *******, ***** Haute, IN, 47804 • 812-***-**** • ************@***.*** Over the past 30 years I have been the manager of businesses that required me to handle day to day operations, customer relations, shop operations and transportation requirements of thousands of semi trailers while also maintaining multiple road crews and all of the planning and scheduling of the crews handling the installation of graphics on trailers for our hundreds of customers. Earlier in life I was raised on a farm and from a very young age I learned how to operate several different types of heavy equipment.
