CEO & Founder of BlueWave Supply Chain | Transforming Supply Chains | FourKites Strategic Advisory Council | Speaker and Author | ex-Schneider | ex-Penske

I’m on a mission to challenge everything we think about supply chains. After years of providing logistics and supply chain operational expertise for shippers of all sizes and industries……. this is what I want you to know: ➝ Supply chains will always be at risk and companies have sadly become resigned to the status quo. ➝ Without intentional strategic planning, supply chains will forever be caught up in a cycle of constant firefighting, chaos, and uncontrolled cost. ➝ Creating a strong and agile supply chain foundation is critical for success, but hard to realize when grappling with the day to day. ➝ Investing in new, more expensive technology is not a silver bullet for solving your supply chain challenges. ​​➝ Hidden work is an unchecked epidemic across supply chain functions, eroding company profit, reducing productivity, and causing employee associate burnout. ➝ All of the above prevents expansive growth— there is an alternative way forward to de-risk your supply chain, improve profitability, and maximize customer retention. After spending three decades designing, implementing, and operating supply chain solutions for Fortune 500 companies, I started BlueWave Supply Chain to drive customer-centric transformation through smart, strategic plans customized to each client. Delivered results to my clients: ✔ De-risked supply chains ✔ Cost reduction ✔ Elimination of employee burn out. ✔ And the most important > improved customer retention and satisfaction. As a former executive with large 4PL organizations, I built business results through ✔ Deploying advanced TMS, AI-driven visibility platforms, and streamlined order-to-cash processes ✔ Breakthrough strategies, quadrupling business revenues ✔ Double-digit annual performance gains I use a systems-based approach to create customer-centric transformation and cross-functional collaboration. I partner closely with clients to unlock meaningful value and forge more resilient, digitally empowered supply chains. I frequently share actionable insights as a speaker, podcast guest, and author, and actively serve on industry boards, including Wayne State University’s Global Supply Chain Management Advisory and the ISM DELIVER Committee. I am honored to have been awarded multiple industry accolades, including the 2021 Women in Supply Chain Award, and was invited to join the prestigious FourKites Strategic Advisory Council.
