Delanee Battle
Customer Service Representative
I began at PLX freight during February of my senior year. Mike came into one of my classes to talk about his company in hopes of getting some interns for the spring. I got in touch with him and quickly started the internship. I started here knowing nothing about the trucking industry. Luckily, I have some of the best in the field teaching me. I went part time in the summer and just recently switched to full time. I am currently a customer service rep, but I am looking forward to building my way up in the company! When I'm not working, I love to spend time with my friends & family, go shopping, and to go hiking with my dog.
