This outstanding group of TDM professionals promises a bright future for the industry. These individuals work to create real solutions for their communities across the country.
 
“I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to work with the cities and companies that are solving problems for commuters with a lens toward sustainability. The ACT has connected me with some incredible community leaders that have opened doors for ReachNow as we continue to expand and given me the confidence that providing transportation options that create cleaner air while reducing congestion is well within reach.” - Peter Dempster
 
“Every day is filled with highs (forming a carpool) and lows (seeing a driver nearly run a bike off the road) that deliver the inspiration I need to keep moving towards a multi-modal world. What started as training for a 200-mile bike ride has grown into a career and lifestyle full of passion.” - Peter Williamson
 
“It is critical to have a vision for advanced transportation technologies. We must collaboratively lay the policy and legal foundations needed to ensure new technologies not only operate safely on our public roads, but also enhance transportation options and connectivity for all citizens.” - Greg Rodriguez
 
“I am very honored to be recognized as a 40 Under 40 Award recipient by ACT. With all the innovation and change happening now in the transportation industry, it is an exciting time to work alongside this group of passionate, dedicated professionals.” - Sarah Wilgus
 
“I’m honored to be a member of ACT’s 40 Under 40 selection and to be recognized as an ambitious leader in an already forward-thinking association and industry. ACT has contributed to my professional development through Leadership Academy, committee participation and through conference attendance. I look forward to continuing to grow with ACT and within the TDM industry.” - Maggie Awad
 
"Thank you to ACT and my colleagues for helping elevate TDM in Central Ohio. Together, we help craft a region filled with healthy and smart mobility options." - Dan Sheehan
