Long post--you've been warned: After a nearly-eight year journey, my time with Auctane (ShipStation/ShipEngine/Stamps.com) comes to an end this October. What an amazing ride--we revolutionized e-commerce during my time with such innovations as using shipping APIs to power platforms, estimated dates of delivery/rates in cart and using shipping data to enhance merchant ratings, working hand-in-hand with amazing partners. Additionally, acting as the public face of the company was always an honor I never took for granted. I always said "yes" when asked to do this, as I realized it was a privilege. The greatest moments of my career came here: 1. Meeting with the Biden transition team to discuss the future of the USPS 2. Being part of the delegation of US executives to Geneva, CH with the US State Department to keep the United States as part of the Universal Postal Union (UPU) (thankfully, we were successful!) 3. Being center stage at such conferences as ShopTalk, Amazon Accelerate, IRCE, Parcel Forum, many others, as well as on live television at the New York Stock Exchange The biggest accomplishments, however, are the lifetime friendships developed with partners and people within Auctane. I'll forever be proud of not only the work we did, but also the ability to call so many people good friends. There are too many people to thank that I will invariably slight, but here it is: Amanda Meadows (my teammate of nearly 24 years!), Michael Delmedico, Mohamed Hassen, Steve Rifai, Jessica Webb, Kelvin Hypolite, Catherine Duke, SHRM-SCP, Paul Henry, Maggy Boyle, Maia Tarver, Katie Hunter, Katie Duncan, Ken Fike, Gregory Ahneman, Lexi Hunt, Courtney Johnson, Cody DeArmond, Chris Vaughn, Celina Romero, Sara Kani, Marc van Bree, Mike Malone, Brooke Ashley, Brandon Herrin, Marcin Bosacki, Jonathan Malone, Viri Kozma, Bryan Jones, Robert Gilbreath, Artie Kris, Leandrew Robinson, Matthew Varner, Bill Pryor, Monica Prahl Schulteis, Amine Khechfe, Mélanie Albiger, Stephanie Shreffler, Curtis Mitchell, Alex Alexander, too many to tag. You know who you are. But my biggest thanks go to: 1. Jennifer Hunt: my partner-in-crime for seven+ years; it's hard to fathom all we accomplished together with partnerships; proud of the work we did and to call you my close friend. 2. Nathan Jones: that day in late 2022 when you pulled me aside to tell me I was the company's best employee, the MVP & represented everything we stand for was the single greatest moment in my professional career. It meant everything to me. Glad to still call you a mentor & friend! 3. John K., my mentor and someone I consider to be a second father; it is hard to eloquently say what all you did for me (and continue to do). No one has ever had such an impact on me professionally. The book on our collaboration is far from closed. As for what's next, I will have an update on my next adventure in a few weeks. Stay tuned! With immense gratitude & much love!
