      I co-founded Lucent Logistcs in January 2016, after four years of experience in the 3PL industry. My goal was clear—to provide a transparent, honest experience for customers’ supply chain transportation needs. Since its inception, we have experienced rapid organic growth, on pace to finish 2021 with $16.5 million in revenue. I currently manage the day-to-day operations of the business, overseeing our sales efforts and brokerage. I constantly research market trends and stay up-to-date with current technological advances within our industry, ensuring our customers are receiving market or below-market rates. Lucent Logistics is always searching for top-tier sales and operations talent interested in receiving competitive compensation and a unique opportunity. We also welcome the chance to learn more about other logistics operations and how we might be able to add value to their networks. Show less
