Hey! I’m Brad, and I’m the Content Marketing Manager here at uShip. I’ve been here for almost three years now, which still feels wild to write.

About five years ago, I decided to leave a profession I loved: high school English and journalism education. I spent 14 years in the classroom teaching sophomore English and building an award-winning journalism program. I also became known as the teacher who wore metal band tees on casual Fridays, which feels important to mention.

I earned my undergrad from the University of Southern Indiana and completed most of my master’s work at IU Bloomington. Since one of my bachelor’s degrees is in advertising, moving into marketing felt like a natural next step. I started as a Marketing Content Lead at a fintech SaaS startup, later moved into insurance SaaS, and eventually found uShip. Once I did, I knew I wanted to get my foot in the door.

Here at uShip, I love helping people see how simple large and bulky shipping can be with the right partner. But my real passion in this space is with the carriers. These business owners are the backbone of what we do, and I love hearing about the success they’ve found on the platform.

When I’m not working on content, you’ll usually find me on my boat, at a concert, hiking, or maybe playing a video game. More often than not, I’m doing one of those things with my son.
