I will remain firmly involved with the company, however responsibility for day-to-day operations for both the Residential and Commercial Divisions will rest with David.

Prior to being promoted, David served for five years as executive vice president, Residential Moving Services of JK Moving, where he was responsible for ensuring strategic growth and profitability across the division while managing operations and the overall residential team.

Innovations guided by David contributed to JK Moving recently being named Independent Mover of the Year by the American Trucking Associations. These included developing AI-driven tools that enable customers to conduct real-time, virtual surveys of their goods; and creating a downloadable mobile app that works with the survey platform to enable clients to review estimates, make payments, and communicate with their move team. In addition, he helped spearhead the company’s move to address driver shortages by increasing its annual guaranteed income for experienced Over-the-Road Class-A CDL Drivers to a minimum $100,000, which is twice the national average for the position.
