Nicole began her career with ATS after graduating from college with a degree in human resource management. She was green to the trucking industry and had no idea what to expect but was excited to learn all she could. She spent her first eight years with ATS as a driver manager with both company drivers and independent contractors. She’s spent her last six years in the operations manager chair.
