As the founder and CEO of three companies in the transportation and logistics industry, I understand that growing successful companies from nothing takes a unique combination of hard work, talented people, and a compelling competitive edge. With a passion for innovation and self-education, I have spent the last 10 years honing my skills, and I still have a ways to go. In 2016, I founded Evennon Inc with $20k and two trucks and grew the company organically over the next three years through reinvestment of profits and optimization of resources. Our optimization was our compelling edge - specifically, we started with analysts who used Excel to minimize empty miles and minimize transit time. The rapid growth of this asset-based trucking company allowed me to fund the creation of a brokerage firm, and in 2019 I launched my second company, Evennon Logistics. Despite operating during a freight recession, this company saw exponential growth in its first year, while over 70,000 companies in the industry filed for bankruptcy during the same period. Evennon Logistics has continuously been outperforming its peers ever since. In 2021, I founded my third company, Magnify Logistics, which is set to disrupt the ground freight transportation industry. Magnify is a software-based logistics company that uses a technology-powered relay system to facilitate the transport of goods across the US at twice the speed and at the same cost compared to traditional over-the-road trucks. This improved method of transportation is beneficial for shippers, carriers, drivers, and investors alike, and I firmly believe it is the future of freight transportation worldwide. I am always open to discussing technology, transportation, and logistics, so don’t hesitate to reach out. I am a strong believer in direct communication.
