Driver Relocating to Portland, OR permanently

I am Michael Gilroy, a professional driver with over 30 months experience. I am looking to relocate to Portland, OR permanently, as such I am looking for a driving position. I am available to move as early as 09/05/2016. I currently hold a Florida Class A CDL with all possible endorsements. I also hold a TWIC for un-escorted entry into US Seaports. I am currently NOT able to enter Canada.

I am relocating to Oregon due to the desire to become a healthier person and have less reliance on personal vehicle driving when not operating a CMV. Portland, OR and the greater Northwest is known for being a very active and health conscience area, so moving to Portland will help me lose weight and become a healthier person through hard work and determination.

However I don't come with out past faults: I started my driving career in the Carnival Amusement Industry in 2011, obtaining my CDL in 2012 and officially entering OTR driving in November of 2014. During my first few months of driving OTR I had three backing incidents over the course of 1 month. I have learned substantially from my mistakes (not using GOAL), and this will be apparent in the road test I will pass for your company. I am a safe and professional driver, and assure you that I am not a liability.

If you are interested in giving me an opportunity at a long-term career please send me an email or leave me message at the number above.

Below is my Resume:
