Years Driving Experience
Bio
For the past 24 years, I’ve served as the operations manager for Metro Express Transportation Services. In that capacity, I manage the company’s truck and trailer maintenance issues. More importantly, I also work to create and maintain friendly and productive relationships between our driver teams and our safety, dispatch teams and back-office support. The success I’ve had in doing my job is tied to the many years I worked as a driver for the company. That experience taught me how drivers think and the high level of support it takes to keep them happy.

Years Driving Experience
Bio
I have over 35 years of experience in the transportation industry. Since 1993, I’ve served as Metro’s Safety Director. Prior to taking that position, I was a driver for the company, and I later assisted management in training new hires. My goal was to make certain each new driver understood and followed the company’s policies and safety guidelines. My current responsibility is to make certain that all of Metro’s drivers stay legal. To do this, I closely monitor all driver qualification and hours of service issues, so that they never affect a driver’s PSP.
