Director of Partnerships | Trucking Insurance Expert

I never thought I’d get into the logistics industry, same as most. Now I don’t think I’ll ever leave.

I’m an Air Force veteran, entrepreneur, and someone who’s always been drawn to high-stakes work that makes an impact. Today, I’m the Director of Partnerships at Logrock, where I foster new relationships with industry leaders and bring exclusive solutions to our clients, through partnerships.

I joined the military to carry on my family’s tradition of service and eventually deployed to Kandahar, Afghanistan, as part of the final U.S. Security Forces team there. That experience shaped a lot of who I am today. It taught me discipline, purpose, and what it means to be part of something bigger than yourself.

After the military, I moved out West in search of opportunity. That’s where I found myself in the world of logistics—starting with drayage and intermodal operations at a top 3PL. I ran import and export containers for a leading Fortune company and quickly realized how deep the industry went. I was able to work my way into strategic accounts and then business development.

The logistics industry hooked into me fast. It’s the backbone of America—it literally keeps the country moving. I’ve always respected truckers, and I’m proud to work alongside them.

After connecting with LogRock’s executive team, it was clear this was a place I could truly put my skills to the test and forge the destiny I’ve always dreamt of. They shared my values and were making something special. I knew LogRock was different right away.

Since joining the team, I’ve had the chance to help build out our partnerships program and it continues to thrive in a turbulent market. My job is all about building strong, long-term relationships with partners who support carriers in the trucking space.
