Mendi Griner serves as the managing and operating partner of JTTW Trucking, which operates out of Orlando, Florida as an independent contractor for FedEx Ground Transportation. Before this, Mendi enjoyed a diverse array of professional experiences, including active involvement in her family’s business, Insta Lube 10 Minute Oil Change and Lube which she purchased in 2012 and ran as the sole owner and operator up until the sale of the business in 2022. She simultaneously taught Spanish at a local middle and upper school in Valdosta. Both of these occupations gave her the blessing of mentoring young people from many different backgrounds on the value of hard work and being the very best one can be, whatever the circumstances.
