Andrew Smith

Summary

I'm a highly motivated and dependable individual looking to move away from the transportation industry. I have had a very successful and rewarding carrier as a professional driver for over 10 years. But, with my children no longer under my roof, and my recent move to the Grand Blanc area now seems like a good time for me to make that move.

I know I don't have any manufacturing experience. But, I believe that my strong work ethic, ability to learn fast and specialized qualifications from the military makes me a good candidate for the header operator job.
