2022-2023 NTTC Driver of the Year finalist

  • HOW DID YOU GET YOUR START IN TRUCKING? WHAT DREW YOU TO THE INDUSTRY?

    My inspiration for joining the industry was a close family friend who owned a milk truck. As a kid, I remember being fascinated by his truck. I would ride with and ask him questions about how the truck works and operates.

  • HOW DOES IT FEEL TO BE SELECTED AS A FINALIST FOR THE PROFESSIONAL TANK TRUCK DRIVER OF THE YEAR AWARD?

    I truly feel blessed to be in this industry and to work for Hoffman Transportation. I try to be a role model for this industry each day. To be part of this year’s elite eight, and to have the opportunity to hold this award for a year, is just such a tremendous honor.

  • WHAT DO YOU ENJOY MOST ABOUT YOUR JOB AS A TANK DRIVER?

    I enjoy being able to represent Hoffman Transportation and having the opportunity to be a role model to younger drivers. I think I let my light shine through my work, through my efforts each and every day, and how I interact with my customers. One of my passions is mentoring new drivers, and I plan on continuing to be a role model for them.

  • WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE THOSE IN THE NEXT GENERATION WHO ARE CONSIDERING JOINING THE INDUSTRY?

    New drivers should start out by learning the industry so that they can grow in it. As they stay in it, they will learn to have a passion for this industry, and that’s something they’ll never lose.
