John has extensive experience in the logistics field and hands-on experience in the areas of operational improvement and technology implementation. His vision leading to the founding of CarrierPoint came from his consulting work with shippers attempting to improve their warehousing and logistics operations. John noticed a gap between the sophisticated systems that shippers had implemented and how they really contracted for and obtained transportation services. CarrierPoint's products and services work to close this gap.

Before co-founding CarrierPoint, John worked at Diamond Technology Partners in their technology implementation practice and at The Summit Group as a project manager of TMS implementations. John has additional logistics-related experience through his roles with FedEX, Fritz Companies, and Rocky Mountain Helicopters.

John received his bachelor's degree from the University of Utah and an MBA from Georgia State University.
