The Global Ground Transportation Institute (GGTI) announced its first Board of Directors, who will work alongside GGTI staff to bring value to membership, create innovative and relevant educational content, and steer the ground transportation industry into the future.
The Board of Directors is made up the following individuals, representing various segments of ground transportation from around the world and representing both operators and vendors:
Chuck Covington, People’s Transit
Kevin Hernandez, ACE Parking
Nick Kokas, Brentwood’s Distinguished Executive Transportation
Alfredo Molina Moebis, Teletrans Chauffeur & Limo Service
Amy Yan, Amy Express
Brenda Borwege, ABC Companies, Inc.
Kurt Cornell, Mercedes-Benz
Chris Jones, Canalys

“Our vision was to have a Board of Directors who reflects the ground transportation industry — diverse, innovative, and progressive. I think we have accomplished that,” said Sarah Gazi, GGTI’s executive director. “I look forward to collaborating with these individuals on uniting and advancing all segments of ground transportation.”
The GGTI Board of Directors will hold its first board meeting in the coming weeks to discuss the future of GGTI and how it can grow to become an invaluable community for its members.
GGTI is still looking for a few names to add to this list. If you are interested in serving on the Board alongside this amazing group of industry representatives, please email info@ggtinstitute.org for consideration. Priority will be given to individuals and companies from newer and under-represented segments of ground transportation.
