Background

The experience behind the advice

I'm a transportation executive with over two decades of experience running freight strategy for large-scale manufacturing operations. My career spans outbound rail and trucking strategy, carrier procurement, network optimization, and building the logistics infrastructure that keeps complex supply chains moving.

I've spent the bulk of my career in Fortune 500 manufacturing — overseeing transportation across multi-facility networks and managing both rail and truckload programs at scale. That includes hands-on leadership of private and for-hire trucking operations, from equipment capital planning and fleet strategy to DOT safety programs and day-to-day operational execution.

FreightLogic Consulting brings that depth to companies that need senior transportation leadership without a full-time hire.

What I Do

Fractional transportation leadership

Embedded strategic support for companies that need senior freight expertise — without the cost of a full-time executive.

Transportation Strategy
Mode optimization, network design, and long-term freight strategy built around your cost structure, service requirements, and growth plans.
Carrier Procurement & RFPs
RFP design, bid management, carrier evaluation, and contract negotiation for truckload, intermodal, and rail programs. Built to get you market-competitive rates.
Interim Leadership
Covering a gap between hires or managing a critical project? I step in as an embedded transportation leader — accountable to your team, your timeline, and your results.
Cost Reduction & Benchmarking
Rate benchmarking, mode conversion analysis, and lane-level optimization to identify where you're leaving money on the table and how to claw it back.
Rail & Intermodal Programs
Intermodal conversion analysis, manifest carload evaluation, Class I railroad negotiations, and 3PL transload strategy for shippers looking to reduce long-haul truck dependency.
Carrier Vetting & Contract Management
Establish contract and insurance requirements tailored to your risk profile. Implement processes to track and manage certificates of insurance, rate schedules, and carrier vetting documentation — so your carrier network is compliant, current, and audit-ready.
Team & Process Development
Logistics team structure, KPI frameworks, carrier scorecards, and TMS evaluation. Building the systems and talent to run freight well without you in every decision.
Private & For-Hire Fleet Management
End-to-end fleet strategy covering capital planning and equipment investment, DOT safety program design, change management implementation, and systems integration — for companies operating or considering their own truck fleet.
