As a trucking company owner and CEO, I have extensive experience in the logistics and transportation industry in the USA, with over 15 years in the field. I've transitioned from being a company driver to an owner-operator and have successfully built a company with over 300 trucks. Simple advice on the beginning stages of your trucking company can save you a lot of time and money. I've encountered many challenges along the way, but some could have been avoided with proper advice! Along with this, I've been a husband for 15 years and a father to 3 children. Between managing success in business and family, I've been able to achieve personal goals in sports like competitive bodybuilding, CrossFit, powerlifting, and I'm a finisher of multiple marathons, two of them being Chicago marathons. I've also completed multiple Ironman triathlons, with a finishing time of 10:48 in Panama City Beach, FL. Lots of goals still lie ahead, keeping me motivated to grow and grind through. I'm an immigrant, having come to the USA at the age of 20 with $500 in my pocket and a desire to succeed in life. This year marks 18 years of living and working in the USA. I'm only getting started, and my mission is to share my knowledge with those who also want to achieve big results!
