About Me

Thank you for visiting my Brazen Careerist profile today. I hope to be able to add value to your professional network.

I have spent over 13 years managing safety and human resources in the third party logistics and fulfillment industries. I have a strong background in safety and compliance, project management and quality. Most of my work concentrated on DOT compliance, OSHA compliance, ISO certification and driver recruitment.

I currently co-host the Small Business Networking Event Downtown Indianapolis, the U3 on the Westside Power Hour and am part of the Indianapolis Logistics Power Circle. You are welcome to be my guest at one of our meetings. If there is anything I can help you, as part of your professional network, don’t hesitate to ask.
