WHY  I WANTED TO BE A TRUCK DRIVER….. 
I’ve  always  wanted to drive a transport, since I was a little girl. The thought of going to new places meeting new people, and getting paid to do it…. WOW!!! sounds great to me .

But life happened, I raised my two daughters and have Worked in a factory most of my adult life. My two daughters are now in their Early twenties and I found  the Micro Skills   Women in Transportation program . So I figured the time was right to follow my  dreams. I graduated from Humber College  on June 9 2016 with honors.  

Margaret Hogg from  JG drapeau was nice enough to give me the opportunity to drive one of her trucks . I’m very happy in the transportation industry and at Drapeau. I look forward to going to work for the first time in my life.

 I also have meet some great people Shelley has been the most helpful to me she is a great mentor and a great  friend 

I like the help and support I receive from the Women’s Trucking Federation Of Canada.  I’m in the informal mentorship group on Facebook.  I like being in this group as I can freely ask anything without the fear of being ridiculed because I’m new. I like the help and support I receive in this group.  

My dream has come true and I look forward to doing a lot of traveling seeing new places and meeting new and interesting people on my travels.
