    Stevens Transport - Dallas, TX

    I worked with Craig on a daily basis for over a decade at Stevens Transport. He was my Vice President of Human Resources. He helped me grow my company by recruiting experienced candidates for every department. We called him again in mid-2016 to recruit an experienced Vice President of Administration, Director of Maintenance and a Director of Safety. Craig continues to deliver solid results for us.

    RICHARD STOCKING - Chief Executive Officer

    Chesapeake Energy - Oklahoma City, OK

    I reached out to Craig to gain insight on a project I was working on. Craig was a great resource and most willing to help me understand a market I was just discovering. Craig helped me recruit an experienced trucking executive to assume the President role of Chesapeake Energy’s new Trucking Division. I really appreciate the help Craig provided and would recommend him without hesitation.
