ICAT Logistics Our Team

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

Rick founded ICAT Logistics in 1993. His career started in 1982 with CF Airfreight. From there, he assumed four different leadership roles over the next five years, and was positioned as the Northeast Regional Cargo Manager at American Airlines.

Rick opened a freight forwarding agency in BWI for a now defunct company in 1992. His time spent as an agency owner caused him to think about the relationship he had with the corporate office and how it might be improved. That experience was the driving factor behind the start of ICAT: a place where every teammate and partner felt included and had their voice heard.

Rick’s chief focus are his wife and four children. His passions are obvious when you get to know him—his family and coaching. When he mentors young men in a variety of sports, his passion definitely shows.

Steve has over 25 years of industry experience. He began his career with Pilot Air Freight before joining ICAT as its first employee. In 1999, he transitioned to his current position from Operations Manager for the BWI Logistics Office. Steve is uniquely able to bring his operations experience into play when developing solutions for customers and ICAT employees alike. If you can’t find Steve playing with the latest piece of geek gadgetry, he’s probably volunteering his IT expertise to family, friends, and the elementary school where his wife teaches. An avid football fan (what non-purists would call soccer), Steve will take time to discuss the finer points of the beautiful game with anyone.

Michele started her career with ICAT in 1996 in the accounting department. From there, she held various roles within the company, including support positions in administration, business development, marketing, and expo sales. Currently, her role involves the integration, growth, and development of all ICAT home office employees, making sure they have the tools necessary to excel in what they do best. When Michele is not working, she is spending time with her husband and two children. Most weekends she can be found at a baton twirling competition or on a baseball field; often with a book in hand. She is passionate about reading, continued learning, outdoor activities, and being with family.

Adam originally joined ICAT in 2005 as a college intern. Upon graduating with degrees in Information Systems and Mathematics, Adam continued with ICAT working in the IT department and learning the freight forwarding industry for the next 9 years. After a brief stint outside of the industry where he picked up managerial skills and new technology experience, Adam returns to ICAT as the Vice President of Business Strategy.   With his background in math and aforementioned industry experience, he looks to find creative ways to discover insights from data to help push the company forward and drive the bottom line. He is married with two kids who keep him very busy outside of work. In his spare time, he is an avid poker player, plays a banjo, and is a big fan of the Baltimore Ravens, Baltimore Orioles, and Maryland Terps.

Ian started his career in logistics back in 1998. Over the years, he has held several different roles within domestic and international operations, sales, and business development. In his previous role before joining ICAT, he was the Vice President of North America Operations for a large U.S.-based freight forwarder.

Ian has joined ICAT as the Executive Vice President of Strategic Growth. With his many years of working in the agency model, he will be able to help the current agencies grow while bringing on new offices to the network. When he is not working, he is spending most of his time with his two sons at their soccer and basketball games. When he’s not with his sons, he enjoys getting in a few rounds of golf.

With over 24 years of experience in the industry, Miguel has a strong ambition to make us the #1 agency-based freight forwarder. As the Executive VP of Aerospace & Defense, his role includes, but is not limited to, helping grow aerospace and defense accounts on a national and global scope and supporting the ICAT network in growing their business in this vertical. Miguel’s favorite aspect of freight forwarding is working on and solving difficult challenges, meeting new customers, and experiencing different scenarios that are always occurring within the industry. When he’s not at work, he’s spending time with his family and focusing on his three kids. He is an avid lover of the water and surfing.

Ginger has many roles here at ICAT that all contribute to the growth and success of the company. Since joining ICAT in 2005, she has been responsible for Vendor Relations, Agency Relations, Compliance Director, Insurance and Claims, and ICAT’s Corporate Operations department. Her current role as VP of Corporate Affairs encompasses vendor relations, contract management, and assisting the agencies with any operational questions. Her many years of experience in LTL, Expedited LTL, Airline Cargo Logistics Management, and Freight Forwarding are of great value. A native Texan, Ginger is passionate about Cowboys football and spends her free time working on projects around the house, as well as her love of playing piano, needlework, and involvement in church activities.

Phil is the Vice President of BWI at ICAT Logistics. He has worked his way up the ranks of operations and management with pricing and process implementation among other functions. Phil’s current role encompasses vendor relations, contract rate management, and assisting the agencies with any operational needs and development. As the son of a pilot, Phil has traveled the globe and enjoys experiencing different cultures. Now a husband and father of two, his interests are grounded in spending time with the family, playing guitar, following his beloved Maryland Terrapins athletics, and frequenting concerts.

Michele joined ICAT in 2004 as the Credit & Collections Manager with over 25 years of experience. She began her career with a worldwide electronic company, and held progressive positions from Credit Clerk to Credit Supervisor. In her current role as Accounting Manager, she oversees both Accounts Payable and Accounts Receivable, monitoring cash flow and maintaining the company’s healthy financial status. Michele is married with two grown children. She is an active member of two organizations that help raise money for local charities, including the ASPCA and Special Olympics.

Kelly is the Director of Compliance for ICAT Logistics. While being new to the company in 2019, she brings 25 years of industry experience in Customs Brokerage, Freight Forwarding, Third-Party Logistics, and commercial imports. Some of her knowledge includes classifications, laws for various commodities, and regulations for moving cargo across borders. As a wife to an active duty Naval officer, she’s seen the logistics industry from Hawaii to Massachusetts and Washington State to Florida. Now firmly settled in Maryland, she brings that experience and perspective to ICAT. Kelly is a busy mom of two teenagers and appreciates all the drama-free time at work. When she’s not working, she enjoys reading, cooking, baseball, football (not soccer), and listening to music.

Kristin joined ICAT in 2016 as a Collections Specialist with 22 years of experience. Her career started in the industrial safety industry holding positions from Collections Specialist to Corporate Credit Manager.  However, her true passion and her pathway to success has always been based on relationship-building and finding ways to make personal connections with every customer interaction. In October 2019, she left the Collections Department, and accepted her position as Director of ICAT Experience. Since then, she has worked to create and implement a strategy to ensure a differentiated experience for ICAT’s valued customers across all departments. Kristin is married with five children and three grandchildren. She spends her time off with her family and beloved Golden Retriever, Shadow, on the quiet beaches of North Carolina.
