About Dennis

Charismatic Driver & Logistics Professional | Customer-Focused Problem Solver

With nearly 30 years of diverse work experience—from executive security to e-hailing dispatch—Dennis combines street smarts, advanced driving skills, and a natural talent for connecting with people. Known for his reliability, loyalty, and infectious positivity, he thrives in roles where communication, adaptability, and customer service are key.

Why Dennis?

Proven Leadership: Boosted team morale and streamlined operations as a driver-dispatcher, ensuring seamless logistics and client satisfaction.

Diplomatic & Persuasive: A "sell ice to an Eskimo" charm that resolves conflicts, retains customers, and builds trust (4.7-star rating on Uber/Bolt).

Resourceful & Safety-Minded: Decades of experience navigating high-pressure environments—from security to transport—with a keen eye for detail.

Loyalty & Dedication: Long-term roles with employers (e.g., 3+ years with Ian Brand) speak to his commitment and work ethic.

Though he’s pivoting away from roles requiring prolonged standing or heavy trucking (due to health considerations), Dennis excels in customer-facing driving, dispatch coordination, or light logistics management. His diabetes and hypertension are well-managed and don’t hinder his ability to deliver exceptional results.

Tech-Savvy Spirit: While Dennis’s expertise lies in hands-on roles, he’s eager to expand his computer skills and quick to master new tools with minimal training. His decades of mastering on-the-job challenges prove his ability to adapt and learn.

Personal Touch:
A devoted husband and father of three, Dennis believes in old-school values: showing up, doing the job right, and leaving people better than he found them. When he’s not behind the wheel, he’s mentoring younger drivers or cracking jokes to lighten the mood.

Let’s Connect: Dennis is eager to bring his warmth, expertise, and hustle to a team that values integrity and human connection.
