What do you attribute your success to?
Blessings from God.
What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?
Find out what your company is measuring as success, focus on it and be the best at meeting that goal.
What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?
It's challenging when your children are young to find a work life balance. It's important to attend those school plays, athletic events, or surprise your spouse with lunch. Time moves quickly, and I doubt anyone ever looked back on their life and wished they had spent more time at work. Find your balance!
What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?
The past few years the economy has been slow to recover and many trucking companies are struggling financially because rates are depreciated. This has caused many trucking companies to close their doors and file bankruptcy which takes capacity out of the industry. Eventually the market will correct itself. I'm thankful to work for a financially stable organization like Hub Group.
What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?
Family and support are central to both my work and personal life. My husband of 30 years has been an incredible support system, and I prioritize building strong relationships with colleagues and clients alike. Commitment, integrity, and continuous improvement guide the way I approach my career and personal growth.
