Summary

With over eighteen years of experience in the transportation industry, I am a manager at Norfolk Southern Corporation, where I apply my operations and logistics expertise to oversee the movement of trains through the terminal, coordinate with cross-functional teams, and optimize the performance of the rail network. I have a keen understanding of the challenges and opportunities in this dynamic and competitive field, and I am always eager to learn new skills, embrace new technologies, and pursue new initiatives that can enhance the efficiency and innovation of rail transportation.

My mission is to improve safety, reduce car dwell, and control cost, while ensuring customer satisfaction and regulatory compliance. I have a proven track record of achieving these goals, as evidenced by the multiple awards and recognitions I have received from my previous employer, Union Pacific Railroad, where I also held a senior management position. I am a skilled leader and communicator, who can motivate and empower my staff, partners, and stakeholders to deliver results.
