Leadership

Ashley Watson, Founder | President

Ashley Watson was raised by her mother and grandmother. In St. Petersburg, Florida, she faced her first bout with adversity in becoming a teenage mother to support her family, she opted to work in the medical field and obtained her Nursing Assistant certification. It was there, that she leaned on her medical industry skills in her quest for more significant development and expansion. Working at the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulations in Tallahassee, allowed her to shift into the government sector. As a result of her professional change and increased financial acumen, Ashley was able to relocate to Columbia, Maryland, to continue raising her family.

In a fresh start, Ashley chose to conquer the transportation and logistics sector after moving and refining her business acumen in the medical field and working for the government. Being unafraid by new challenges, she decided to enter the male-dominated transportation industry in order to bring her caring touch from nursing and the structure of her government experience to the world of logistics. With that goal in mind, Ashley decided to hang up her heels and pursue a career as a professional driver with a Class A CDL.
