🚛 Closing a Chapter, Opening a New One 🚛 Today marks my last day at C.H. Robinson after 14 exceptional years. As I reflect on this journey, I am filled with gratitude and pride. From cutting my teeth in capacity brokerage, where I learned the basics of the trucking industry, to spending my career changing the narrative of how mid to large-size fleets viewed Robinson, every step has been invaluable. In 2019, I had the privilege of pioneering the Robinson Routes program, a milestone that reshaped our approach and strategy. Leading the charge in autonomous truck development was an incredible opportunity to innovate and push boundaries. Most recently, I focused on how to deliberately and practically deliver value in the sphere of sustainability, ensuring a greener future for logistics. Robinson is a great company with fantastic people, and I look forward to partnering with them in my next role...more to come on that in the next month. I want to sincerely thank Eric Herchenroether, my first boss and mentor, for his unrelenting guidance and support. Secondly, Adam McDonough, CSCP, who was incredible at elevating my perspective and developing me to become more boardroom ready. Adam Poehlmann, thank you for always putting up with my nonstop requests for more reporting; it's worth noting that the Robinson Routes program had the most robust reporting for a program that hardly made a dent in NAST volume! And, of course, Darien Wu, my brother in arms since 2017, one of the most remarkable people I’ve had the pleasure of working with and someone I will deeply miss as a colleague. Michael Smith, your pragmatic view and strong analytical perspective made you someone I could always rely on. And lastly, to all the team members I managed throughout the life of the program, you all have made a significant impact on me. A heartfelt shoutout to all the fleet partners who engaged in Robinson Routes, trusting me with their drivers and expected O/R, and to the shippers and commercial partners at Robinson who helped facilitate new business. Here’s to new beginnings and the exciting journey ahead! 🚀 #Farewell #NewBeginnings #Logistics #Trucking #ThankYou
