About Linda
After a 40 year career with the USPS, I retired as the Vice President, Area Operations for the Southern Area leading operations in over 5800 post offices, 63 major mail processing facilities with a fleet of nearly38,000 vehicles and over 115,000 employees. The Southern Area consists of 12 Districts located in eight states with a total operating budget over $10 billion and revenue exceeding $10 billion. Since retirement I have volunteered weekly at the DFW USO Center at the airport and our satellite unit at the Dallas MEPS. I also present transferable skills information to candidates at Dress for Success and have assisted with resume development, interview skills and LinkedIn account creation.
Linda has volunteered to be available for private messages. Feel free to send a conversational message but remember to be succinct and mindful of the other person’s time.
