21-year-old in CT looking to get into hotshot

Hey everyone, I’m 21 and located in Connecticut. I’m trying to get into hotshot trucking and I’m looking for an owner-operator or small company willing to train someone who is serious about learning the business.

I currently work around trucks and have experience moving semis and box trucks around a yard and backing car trailers. I’m willing to ride along, learn the business, and put in the work. I’m not expecting someone to hand me a truck with no experience — I’m looking for someone willing to give me an opportunity to learn and eventually become a dependable driver.

I was recently referred to an owner-operator through someone I know, and he’s currently checking with his insurance because of my age. So I’m trying to network with other operators in CT/NY/MA/New England who might need a driver or trainee.

If anybody knows an owner-operator, fleet owner, or small company looking for someone willing to learn, I’d really appreciate a message. I’m serious about getting into this.

Thanks.
