As the CEO of FreightTech.org, dedicated to revolutionizing the freight industry through technology, I oversee the strategic direction and operational execution of our mission to democratize access to freight technology. Under my leadership, we focus on developing a transformative operating system tailored for air and ocean freight forwarders. My role involves rallying global industry stakeholders around our vision of a digitally interconnected freight ecosystem where cutting-edge technology supports sustainable business practices and promotes standardization across the sector. By spearheading initiatives that provide scalable, interconnected core tools at zero cost, I am committed to dismantling financial barriers to innovation, enabling all stakeholders to unleash their full potential, and fostering a more efficient, environmentally friendly freight forwarding landscape.
In this capacity, I leverage my extensive background in logistics, technology, and sustainability to orchestrate the creation of a digital ecosystem that addresses the pressing needs of declining profitability, operational inefficiencies, and the urgent call for sustainability in the freight industry. By championing a community-based approach to software development, I aim to catalyze a paradigm shift towards more collaborative, transparent, and effective supply chain management. My leadership is grounded in a deep belief in the power of collective innovation to drive meaningful change, ensuring that every stakeholder in the freight forwarding process has access to the tools needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving global market.
