My name is Paul G Wilde, and I didn't start my career behind a desk. I started it in the U.S. Navy, serving in VA-196 as an Aviation Structural Maintenance specialist. I spent my days ensuring our aircraft were mission-ready, learning the value of precision, discipline, and hard work.
After the Navy, I traded the flight deck for the open road. I earned my CDL and spent time behind the wheel for Prime, CRST, and Panther. I've seen the long nights, the missed holidays, and the frustration of dealing with brokers who don't understand what it's like to be 80,000 lbs deep in a winter storm.
"To be honest, I couldn't handle the lifestyle for the long haul. The sacrifice you drivers make every day is immense. I transitioned into web development, but I never lost my respect for the men and women who keep this country moving."
