The path that Erin has taken to arrive in the used truck & trailer business is no doubt, the road less traveled. Erin had spent the previous 20 years working in the medical field, prior to coming to Image Truck Partners in late 2022. Though Erin found her previous career wildly rewarding, it was time to make a change, and luckily for Image Truck Partners, that change was to the used commercial equipment industry. Needless to say, Erin’s attention to detail and ability to stay on top of numerous issues are easy when coming from her prior environment. Additionally, Erin has the perfect personality to fit in with our industry and the incredible people that it comes with.

Erin is a lifelong resident of Kansas City who is constantly kept on her toes by her two kids. Erin’s personal interest include sports, yoga and mindfulness. I feel that Erin is better qualified to fill this part out than her friend, Todd!
