A Passion Filled Professional Journey
Often described as Mastery’s intermodal cheerleader, Sherie dipped her toes into the intermodal industry and was hooked right away. Sherie started her career at REZ-1 in 2008, where she became the Customer Success and Engagement Manager for all of the Class 1 railroads and some of the top ocean carriers. Sherie worked with the rails to grow their business and ensure the effective use of their platform. When REZ-1 rebranded as Blume Global Sherie took on the role of solutions consultant where she supported the sales team and conducted system demos.
Prior to joining Mastery, Sherie decided to go back to school and obtain a Master’s Degree in Information Design and Strategy from Northwestern University. The degree put an emphasis on UX Design and how information is taught, consumed, and communicated effectively.
In 2020 Sherie was introduced to Mastery by a long-time mentor, and she could not resist the opportunity to be a part of something new and innovative in the transportation technology industry. At Mastery, Sherie is responsible for understanding the landscape of the intermodal marketplace and ensuring that MasterMind (TMS) is in the best position to help its users manage the ever-evolving complexities of intermodal. She works alongside clients and Mastery’s design and engineering teams to develop end-to-end product workflows.
