John McClelland’s Summary

Working for Evergreen could fall under multiple categories (Logistics, Import/Export, Ocean Transportation etc). Logistics at Evergreen entails handling cargo tracking, cargo dispatch, equipment control, and maintenance & repair of our equipment. I currently control the Gulf Region, ensuring cargo containers imported and exported are delivered to the customer. Within the next month, I will be transitioning to handling only exports, but for an increased area across the country, as our Dallas office absorbs the work of offices being closed in other cities.

I have past experience working in customer service, tech support, and account management.

I was the Democratic nominee for Texas State House District 64 in the November 2008 election, former Chairman of the Candidate Recruitment Committee for the Denton County Democratic Party. I have past political experience as both campaign staff, management, and candidate.

I also currently serve as the President of Stonewall Democrats of Denton County.

Addison chapter founder for Drinking Liberally. Just took on the role of Field Organizer for all of Texas Living Liberally.
