    Background

    I grew up in Alberton, Prince Edward Island, and spent most of my time on my grandparents’ farm driving tractors, repairing trucks, spending time with horses and lots of fishing. I really enjoyed mathematics and was interested in numbers, angles and engineering. I graduated from Westisle High School and really enjoyed working in a fast-paced environment to figure things out, on the go. 

     

    Career

    I work for Irving Oil as a Fuel Delivery Driver, mainly covering western PEI. I assist in keeping our Harbour Keylocks up and running at an efficient pace. I also help keep our fishing and farming communities running with my fuel deliveries. 

    I love my job, customers and our company’s approach to safety. My job makes me very happy, always keeps me interested and constantly challenges me with its ever-changing fast pace and changing seasons. It also provides me with beautiful scenery while I drive! I have met so many fantastic people along the way and work with a great team. I come home safely every day to my partner, son and daughter.
