VICTORVILLE – Cheri Haider was recently named the Postmaster of the Victorville Post Office.

She replaces former Victorville Postmaster Oscar Gonzalez, who moved to another facility.

As Victorville Postmaster, Haider supervises 135 employees and oversees retail services at the Victorville Post Office and the daily distribution of mail on 59 delivery routes in Victorville, Spring Valley Lake and Oro Grande and to more than 3,000 PO Boxes at her facility.

Haider is a 16-year postal employee who began her career as a mail carrier and most recently served as the manager of a San Bernardino postal facility.

“I’m excited to assume this very important role,” said Haider. “My goals are to provide exceptional service to the communities we serve, a good place to work for my employees, and to contribute to the overall success of the organization.

“As outlined in USPS’s Delivering for America plan, we are modernizing and continually adapting to the changing needs of our customers. Our customers are priority one, whether they’re located in the biggest cities or smaller communities such as Victorville, Spring Valley Lake and Oro Grande.

“I want to express my gratitude to my peers and former postmasters for their support and assistance in my development, and to the leadership team at the USPS San Diego District office for believing in me and giving me this opportunity.”

Haider’s hobbies include sewing, camping and reading.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products, and services to fund its operations
