Digging into a decade of logistics and supply chain management has been a wild ride. I've got my hands dirty in the gears of managing some complex projects, fine-tuning shipping routes, and making sure different teams play nice together for that flawless supply chain magic.I’m all about getting things done efficiently, in compliance with those ever-changing regulations, and always looking for how tech can make our lives easier and our wallets heavier. With a track record that speaks for itself, I’m here to push the envelope on what a logistics operation can look like.My day-to-day could be anything from:* Rolling out strategic plans that actually make sense for where we want the business to go, connecting big visions with actionable realities.* Building real relationships with carriers, shippers, and industry professionals that go beyond the usual email blasts.* Making sure we know where our shipments are at all times, because “lost in transit” isn’t in our vocabulary.* Handling the day-to-day with the brokerage team, making sure everyone’s got their game face on, the workloads balanced, and the vibe positive.* Ensuring we’re not just moving stuff from point A to B, but doing it in a way that doesn’t break the customer’s bank or our backs.* Putting operations policies and procedures in place because flying by the seat of our pants isn’t a great business model.* Leading the charge in getting new tech and systems online so we can do less work and more thinking.* Keeping in line with the myriad of regulations because getting fined isn’t on our to-do list.* Working closely with the warehouse department to make sure goods move like they’ve got somewhere important to be.

Marten was my start in the logistics world. The foundation I laid here is what helped me make Logistics Xpress what it is today. At Marten Transportation, I:* Coordinated over 500 shipments monthly, ensuring they hit the mark every time.* Took the reins on coordinating goods transport – talking deals, picking the right carriers, and scheduling shipments.* Kept tabs on shipments and made sure everyone involved knew what was up.* Ensured goods got to and from warehouses without playing hide and seek.* Managed inventory like a boss, making sure we’ve got exactly what we need, right where we need it.* Stayed sharp on regulations to keep things smooth and fine-free.
