Logistics
Strategic oversight of inbound, outbound, and reverse logistics across 3PL and 4PL networks — managing complexity at scale while maintaining cost discipline and service excellence.
Logistics Complexity Grows Faster Than Most Teams Can Handle
As businesses scale, logistics networks grow more complex — more SKUs, more channels, more carriers, more partners. Without experienced executive oversight, costs balloon, service levels slip, and visibility into what's actually happening across the network deteriorates.

Logistics as a Strategic Lever, Not Just a Cost

Oversaw inbound freight, outbound parcel and freight, cross-docking, and reverse logistics for brands across DTC, foodservice, and CPG channels. Managed relationships with carriers, freight brokers, and 3PL partners to ensure consistent performance and cost control.
Implemented logistics technology including TMS, WMS, and OMS platforms that provide real-time visibility across the network — enabling faster decision-making and earlier identification of service failures before they impact customers.
Founded and scaled the first U.S. fulfillment center to become an approved Amazon Solutions Partner — a milestone that required building logistics infrastructure and compliance systems to meet Amazon's exacting standards.
