She got the itch to start driving and did what any young lady that wants to command a semi did, she got her Class A CDL. She started driving towards the end of 2018 with her boyfriend as a team. She said in the interview that there is nothing like it and it sounds like this girl loves the road. Her truck was special ordered by her company as you will see in some of the pics. A pink 780 Volvo https://www.volvotrucks.us/trucks/vnr/

Heart Attack on the Road
Heart Attack on the Road – What would you do if someone traveling with you was having a heart attack? Well thats what happen to this ultra strong young new female driver. Her companion and best friend was having a heart attack as she was driving down the road. Thats right, less than 2 months experience and she is dealing with something that most drivers will Neve have to do. Her man was in trouble and she was about to take over. She stopped what she was doing and was about to take her new semi to the nearest hospital in Pennsylvania. Chelsee would get him to the hospital on time so he can get the 6 bypass heart operation he received that night! Imagine the terror she must have felt but Chelsee looked terror in the eyes and kept going. By the grace of God this story worked out and both are doing fine today. He is home from the hospital after weeks in PA. Recovery is never a pleasant event but it sounds like he will fully get there.
