Brad Bruce
Summary
I worked as a shipper/receiver for capital paper for over 10 years. Then I decided to go back to school to become a mechanic. Then transitioned into a small engine mechanic. But now after years of mechanic work I have decided to leave the trade to explore my options. Also have air brake endorsement, and have a clean drivers abstract.
