Meet Kadie

Our Newest LC

Chase continues to grow his account and relationships with his customers, so it’s only fitting that we added a logistics coordinator to his account. Insert Kadie into the picture!

Kadie joined our team earlier this month. She is from Williamsburg, Ohio. She attended college at Ashland University & University of Cincinnati where she played volleyball. She enjoys the single, kid-free lifestyle with her two dogs, Booger and Daisy.

The industry is nothing new to her. Kadie has been in logistics for over four years. She attributes a lot of her success to her ability to learn and take criticism as well as her motivation to do well and make as much money as possible.

Fun Fact: Kadie used to live in Alaska and she is a former police office! (How cool!)

Since joining our team, Kadie has loved that everyone is so helpful. “I have been able to ask anyone for help and no one hesitates to help,” she shared. “Everyone here is super nice and so helpful!”

Welcome to the PGT family, Kadie! 

Meet Sam C

Southern Illinois to Ohio

Last month, we added another Sam to our team…because, you know, two wasn’t enough! Sam C came to us via referral and we are excited to see all he achieves here!

Sam C is from Southern Illinois but over time, his family slowly migrated east to Ohio. He graduated from Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville with an English degree. The original plan was to teach at the university level, but instead, his journey led him to take a break from school and he ended up teaching abroad for four years.

Everyone has different motivations in life! Sam is motivated by serving his community. He enjoys volunteer that gets him out of his normal routine because it gives him the opportunity to work with and meet new people.

In his time at PGT, Sam has enjoyed the small, diverse team the best. “Everyone is quick to help at work and there is camaraderie after hours for a couple beers or a weekend card game.”

Welcome to the team, Sam!

Meet Michael

Our Musical Team Member

It has been a little while since we’ve introduce a new team member, so let’s get to it! Michael joined our team last year as an account manager. We will let him introduce himself!

As the stepson of the active Commanding General of the Kentucky Colonels, I grew up in Fort Mitchell, KY and went to Beechwood Independent Schools. While in school, I was a member of various musical programs for several years, primarily being the symphonic and jazz band. While I do not have a degree currently, I am in the enrollment process at NKU to pursue higher education. I have four brothers and two sisters, but my cat Apollonia gives me the most trouble out of any of my family!

 As I was driving on the highway on a rainy day, a semi-truck smashed into the driver side rear of my vehicle. The driver proceeded to hand me a ‘wad’ of cash and I thought to myself, “This guy must make some money!” The light bulb in my head went on!  After working in banking, I paved my way into the logistics industry by working as a third-party, non-asset-based mechanic 

broker for non-corporate account holders. I slowly learned as much that was offered about the industry and made the jump to providing customized supply chain solutions.

The biggest thing I enjoy about PGT is the people and guidance. If you want somewhere with a team dedicated to ensuring your success, this is the place! It does not come easy, and while I have a long way to go, I’m excited to be a part of the growing future here.

Welcome to the team, Michael!
