Juan Trujillo
Loader Driver, Roswell, New Mexico

Juan Trujillo has made a lasting impact in a short amount of time through his dedication, positive attitude, and willingness to step up wherever he is needed. Since completing his training just one year ago, Juan has quickly established himself as a dependable loader who approaches every day with a strong work ethic and commitment to doing the job right.

As a loader, Juan understands the important role he plays in the dairy supply chain. “I've realized the importance of providing quality and efficient service to our dairies and plants, ensuring everything is up to standard and keeping the milk flowing,” he shared. His focus on quality and efficiency helps support customers and keeps operations running smoothly.

Juan believes that attitude is one of the keys to success. “Keeping a positive mindset to overcome any hurdle or inconvenience always helps me get through even the toughest days,” he said. That outlook has earned the respect of his teammates and leaders alike.

His supervisor, Karla Lee, shared that “Juan consistently leads by example through his strong work ethic, positive attitude, and commitment to getting the job done safely and efficiently.” She also praised his willingness to embrace change, noting that when operational changes required loaders to learn additional locations and responsibilities, Juan stepped up without hesitation and adapted quickly to the new challenge.

Outside of work, Juan enjoys taking long motorcycle rides and spending time fishing, giving him the opportunity to relax and recharge.

Karla summed it up best: “Juan is a dependable, hardworking team player whose positive attitude, willingness to help others, and ability to embrace change make him an asset to our operation.”

Thank you, Juan, for your dedication, flexibility, and the positive example you set every day!

April Owens
Operations Broker, Cabool, MO

April Owens brings energy, positivity, and a commitment to excellence to everything she does. In a fast-paced environment, she works hard to build strong relationships with the carriers she supports, believing that trust is one of the most valuable tools she can bring to the job. As April shared, “I strive to build rapport with the carriers assigned to me. With that trust, I am able to confidently stay ahead of them to fill any needs we can help with across multiple group accounts.” Her proactive approach helps keep operations moving efficiently while providing outstanding service.

One unexpected skill April has developed during her time with the company is working with spreadsheets. “I had never used them before and feel I have made huge progress with them,” she said. “Before this, I was still a marker board and notes kind of girl.” Learning new tools and embracing new challenges has helped her become even more effective in her role.

Her supervisor, Ryan Adams, praised April's work ethic and positive attitude, sharing that “April goes above and beyond daily, striving to manage her tasks effectively and promoting positivity in everything she does.” He also noted that her focus on communication helps operations run smoothly and that she is always willing to go the extra mile for both drivers and teammates.

Outside of work, April stays busy cheering on her biggest team. “When I'm not at work, I'm on a ballfield or in a gym,” she shared. “With seven kids, their sports and activities keep me busy in the evenings!”

Ryan summed it up well: “April's strong work ethic and attention to detail provide consistent workflow in our daily operations.”

Thank you, April, for your dedication, positivity, and the outstanding support you provide to our team every day.

🚦 Building Safe Habits Early 🚦

Safe driving starts long before someone gets behind the wheel of a commercial vehicle.

Learning how to safely share the road with large trucks and buses is an important skill for drivers of all ages. Simple habits like avoiding distractions, leaving plenty of space, using turn signals, and staying out of blind spots can make a big difference.

As part of FMCSA's Our Roads, Our Safety® Week, today's theme reminds us that building safe habits early helps create safer roads for everyone.

The lessons we learn today become the driving habits we carry for a lifetime.

🤝 Power of Partnerships 🤝

Safer roads don't happen by accident.

They are built through partnerships between professional drivers, motor carriers, law enforcement, government agencies, industry organizations, and the communities we serve.

As part of FMCSA's Our Roads, Our Safety® Week, today's theme highlights the importance of working together to improve safety for everyone who travels our nation's roadways.

At Western Dairy Transport, we're proud to support initiatives that bring the transportation industry, safety professionals, and communities together with a shared goal: making our roads safer for all.

Because when we work together, everyone gets home safely.

Frank Barron
Haul-Off Driver, Bryan, TX

Frank Barron has built a career around trucking, and his passion for the industry is evident in everything he does. Having started driving in Texas at 18 and expanding to all 48 states by age 21, Frank has spent decades behind the wheel. As he puts it, “It gets in your blood.” Since joining the company in 2018, he has continued to bring that same dedication and enthusiasm to the job every day.

What stands out most about Frank is his willingness to help others. According to his supervisor, TJ Resendez, “It's always about his willingness to help without a second thought.” That mindset has made Frank a valuable resource for both drivers and the operation as a whole.

As a Driver Trainer, Frank takes pride in helping new drivers succeed. “I like training new employees just to give them a shot at driving,” he shared. Drawing from years of experience, he enjoys passing along knowledge while continuing to learn himself. TJ noted that “his value to the team as a mentor is a huge plus, helping others learn the safe and proper way to do things.” His commitment to supporting others has made a lasting impact on the Bryan team.

Outside of work, Frank enjoys fishing, spending time in the kitchen, and, most importantly, spending time with his family. One of the things he appreciates most about his current role is the opportunity to be home more and enjoy those moments with the people who matter most.

TJ summed it up best: “He has been and continues to be one of the most positive influences on the team.”

Thank you, Frank, for your leadership, mentorship, and the positive example you set every day.

Every day, our drivers make thousands of decisions that protect themselves, their fellow motorists, and the communities they serve.

At Western Dairy Transport, we are proud of the professional drivers who lead by example and demonstrate what safe, responsible driving looks like every day.

Thank you to all of the drivers who keep America moving while making safe choices.

🚛 Our Roads, Our Safety® Week is Here 🚛

Every day, professional drivers, passenger vehicles, law enforcement, and communities share the same roads with one common goal: getting home safely.

As part of Our Roads, Our Safety® Week, we're joining the effort to raise awareness about safe driving practices around large trucks and commercial vehicles.

Today's message: See Big. Drive Smart.

Large trucks have larger blind spots, require more distance to stop, and need extra room to safely maneuver. A few simple actions can make a big difference:

✔ Stay out of truck blind spots
✔ Never cut in front of a large truck
✔ Allow extra following distance
✔ Give trucks plenty of room to turn
✔ Stay focused and avoid distractions

Safety isn't just a company value—it's a responsibility we all share.

Whether you're behind the wheel of a passenger vehicle or a commercial truck, thank you for doing your part to make our roads safer for everyone.
