About

After almost a decade navigating the fast-paced world of freight brokerage, I made the leap from moving freight to moving people. For the past four years, I've focused on helping professionals—many of them former clients and colleagues—land their next big opportunity in logistics, supply chain, and beyond. With 10+ years of hands-on experience in the industry, I speak the language of transportation, operations, and brokerage. I know what hiring managers are really looking for—and I know where to find the talent that makes teams stronger. Whether you're seeking your next challenge or looking to hire someone who gets it, I’m here to help. 📦 Logistics Expertise 🔍 Executive Search & Recruiting 🤝 Relationship-Driven Results Let’s connect.
