What does your day-to-day role look like here at Spot?: My day-to-day is a mixture of operations and sales. I typically spend my days tracking/booking shipments while talking with my customers and prospects about opportunities for Spot to haul their freight.
What is your advice for soon to be graduates?: Enjoy it while you can because after graduation, it’s all about work!
