Executive Summary

The heart and soul of CarlMichaels is driven by Saraya Scott. After working in Corporate America for several years and having to sacrifice many moments with her sons due to her demanding career, Saraya realized a change had to happen quickly.

THE FOUNDER

Saraya Scott - CEO

Saraya Scott, originally born and raised in a small town in Gary, Indiana, grew up in a home with her 12 siblings. Saraya’s parents taught the vital importance of discipline and hard work. She learned early on that no excuse was good enough to justify her not achieving her dreams and goals. Saraya knew at a young age her future would expand outside of Indiana. Saraya experienced successes and failures throughout her entrepreneurial journey. She was led into the transportation industry and relocated to Houston, Texas While experiencing some expected challenges being new to trucking, Saraya did not allow the unfamiliar territory to deter her from her goals. In fact, she utilized her strengths of strategic processing and creative boldness to guide her through the difficult stages leading to her success. Saraya's initial dedication with fieldwork, physically driving her first truck with her two younger boys at her side is what she lists as major contributing factor. Though commonly viewed as a male dominated industry, Saraya is just at the cusp of what she is sure to be a woman lead force in the logistics and trucking industry. Futuristically, Saraya has already begun to develop the future of CarlMichael's Transportation, with expansion into international brokerage and the CarlMichaels Logistics Education Center. This newly established platform has received an overwhelming amount of interest. CarlMichael's Transportation's mission is to develop an accredited program and build a reliable franchise opportunity for truckers to build wealth under a trusted name in the logistics community.
