In just two short years, dozens of individual trucking and logistics companies have come to trust Burnham as their benefits adviser because of Burnham''s keen understanding of the unique challenges they face and ability to provide effective solutions.
"The trucking industry is incredibly unique in that there are various needs and wellness cultures within it," said Kristen Allison, president and CEO of Burnham Benefits. "Tricia''s compassion for individual lifestyles intrinsic to trucking, logistics and transportation clients makes her a natural fit for the role. I look forward to seeing how she and Bill will innovate and build ideas to improve what the industry delivers to its employees."
