Wings of Excellence winners 6/9

On behalf of the Steering Committee, it is with great pride to share another round of Wings of Excellence Awards.

🎸 Brittany Carbone, Logistics Specialist • HQ

"Brittany's exceptional work on the Route Optimization project has included organization, attention to detail, and impeccable follow-up skills which have been truly instrumental in managing the numerous changes.  Keeping track of the customer master files, IT import files, and the CX customer communication file for over 7000 route changes thus far is incredibly amazing, just to name a few. You have successfully navigated a complex process, and your ability to manage these critical components has been invaluable to numerous teams.   You are truly the Queen of Logistics!  Thank you for your dedication and hard work."

-Lisa Almeida, Director of Logistics and Transportation

"Brittany has been on top of routing updates throughout this integration between transportation, IT and CX.  What really stood was when we made a last minute change to the SE routing names.  Lisa Almeida got the updated routes completed late in the evening. Brittany saw that change come through and knew she had to act quicker than usual.  She came in EARLY and by the time everybody else was logging in she already updated all the places.  She really took ownership of her project and you could feel the sense of urgency.  She is a rockstar!"

-Paige Battermann, CX Manager , IMO Lead

🎸 Arturo Murillo, HR Generalist • Denver, PA

"I would like to recognize and personally thank Arturo Murillo for his outstanding commitment and leadership in preparing for go-live in Denver, PA.  Arturo went above and beyond by traveling to the Scranton, PA facility and successfully encouraged employees to relocate and/or sign-up to work in Denver, PA during the startup of 3PL operations.  Additionally, Arturo has been instrumental in supporting onboarding efforts at other sites across our company, particularly by assisting Spanish-speaking employees and ensuring they feel welcomed to PFX.  Arturo also took full ownership of recruiting for the Denver, PA facility, making sure all positions were filled on-time and the site was ready to train and onboard new employees for a successful go-live.  His dedication, initiative, and ability to lead through change exemplify the very best of our HR team."

-Joe Emerick, Senior Vice President, Human Resources

"Arturo has played a key role in supporting recruitment efforts for the 3PL and Cold Chain conversions at Denver PA. He consistently demonstrates a strong bias for action—once he understands the objective, he pursues it with focus and determination. Arturo’s leadership stands out, especially in navigating new processes and supporting the team through uncharted territory. He steps up when needed, contributes to critical decision-making, and helps drive progress. Arturo is a tremendous asset to the team, and it’s a pleasure to work alongside him."

-Martin Kell , Sr. Manager DC Operations

🎸 Lexi Figueroa, Operations Lead • Suwanee, GA

"Lexi worked calmly and efficiently, with a smile on her face for hours on end.  I think she received a month's worth of POs in three days!  A fantastic addition to the PFX team!"

-Seth Mayers, Chief Technology Officer 

🎸 Deborah Curtner, Administrative Assistant • HQ

"Shout-Out to Deb Curtner - Our Integration Travel Agent and So Much More!
Deb has wholeheartedly taken on the role of Integration Travel Agent, coordinating everything from Denver to Suwanee, Tacoma to Bartlett, and Fontana to Orlando to only mention a few.  If you're looking to travel, Deb’s got you covered - She’s mastered Navan, our travel platform, like a pro!  And that’s just the beginning……Deb continues to keep HQ running smoothly every day:  welcoming employees who forget their key fob in the morning, planning lunches for meetings, preparing UPS and FedEx packages, and making sure the lunchroom is fully stocked. And let’s not forget the coffee machines, which Deb diligently maintains and restocks so we all have our much-needed morning (and afternoon) pick-me-up!
Thank you, Deb, for your incredible dedication, versatility, and commitment.  You truly keep everything—and everyone—moving!"
