Optym

Last month while on site with our partners at Estes Express Lines, our teams gathered for a magnificent dinner at The Jefferson Hotel, which opened in 1895 and has hosted more than 13 presidents. Together, we enjoyed a great meal, beautiful architecture, and even better conversation. Thank you to Griffin Speight, Tim Murray, and Michael Gibson, MBA from Estes for their hospitality. A special thank you to Rambabu Yadlapalli, Patrick Evans, and the greater Optym team for their continued dedication to serving our customers.

"If you believe a business is built on relationships, make building them your business." On behalf of Optym, I sincerly appreciate the warm hospitality from Ryan Schilling, Nicky Cupp and the extended Fraley and Schilling team. Danny Zeenberg and I thoroughly enjoyed the visit and social outing in lovely downtown Knoxville. Also great to spend some quality time catching up with Shawn McLeod of Axle Logistics. Shawn and I actually started out in the freight trenches together many moons ago, and it's been nothing short of amazing to witness his career blossom since those early days. Looking forward to making it back down to the Volunteer State soon!
