Biography

Kroese brings 20 years of experience in transportation and logistics, including executive level experience at Union Pacific Railroad in Omaha, Nebraska. As a past Fortune 150 company executive, her supply chain management experience also includes marketing and sales components combined with valuable experience at Nebraska Business.

Kroese majored in management at Nebraska, graduated in 1996 and received her MBA from Creighton University. She stayed involved at the College of Business and when she was the lead recruiter for Union Pacific for more than 15 years, she hired many university students for marketing and sales jobs.
