I help new and established companies with commercial motor vehicles (CMVs) launch, manage, and grow their operations while staying DOT and FMCSA compliant. With over 12 years of experience, including building my own 8-truck fleet into a 7-figure business, I now lead Prime Fleet Management, a U.S.-based agency that designs and manages safety, compliance, and operational systems for fleets across industries: trucking, construction, utilities, waste management, agriculture, and more. I’m not just a consultant.
