Employee Spotlight: Meet Your Driver, David Vanderlooven
When David Vanderlooven moved to Owosso, Michigan, he was ready to leave his sales job at PepsiCo behind.
“I wanted to see more than the back of grocery stores,” he said.
A search for local jobs led him to Indian Trails, the parent company of Michigan Flyer, headquartered right in Owosso. He had never driven a motorcoach before, so he started with Indian Trails’ training.
It covered nearly every part of the 56-seat bus and prepared him for his commercial driver’s license. He also liked the warm company culture and the focus on safety and customer service.
“Everyone here is so friendly and cares about each other,” he added.
Along the way, he picked up some company history, too. Indian Trails has been part of the Owosso community for 116 years and has weathered everything from the Great Depression to the COVID-19 pandemic.
“It’s great to work for a place with such a long history."
David started on Indian Trails’ daily routes and group charter trips, then moved over to Michigan Flyer. Airport runs are his favorite.
“I love picking people up from the airport, some of whom are from all parts of the world, and taking them to and from their destinations,” he said.
Off the clock, David spends most of his free time with Boris, his new Russian wolfhound puppy.
