Natasha Dowling

 

Natasha was born in Portsmouth, Virginia, and her family relocated to Atlantic Beach, Florida when she was 2. “Tasha”, as her friends affectionately call her, grew up basically as an only child, only because her siblings were all at least 11 years older than her. She loved school, dancing and roller skating! She remembers holidays at home with a house of full of Navy personnel who didn’t have family in town to spend time with. Her mom, known to one and all as “Momma Carol”, through her generous hospitality to everyone she met, taught and ultimately passed along her kindness, giving spirit and open-heartedness to Tasha.

Tasha has been in transportation accounting since 2005. She brings of wealth of industry experience to AGX, including previous positions held at Vexure, NYK Logistics, Sunteck Transport, Eleets, E-Transport and others. She was recruited into the industry by AGX Founder, Mike Williams, to do data entry, subsequently fell in love with the business and has been moving up the ladder and taking on more responsibility ever since. When asked what she loves most about the industry, Tasha said, “We move America! I love talking to the agents and drivers and hearing their stories. I love numbers too, so I get the best of both worlds. I love knowing that we have played a small part into getting products into stores all over the country.”

When not working, Tasha loves to solve puzzles, visit theme parks and spend time with family, especially getting to take their 85 lb dog, Colby, to the dog park. Her and her husband, John (also in the trucking business) have two adult sons, Jacob (26) and Justin (24). They also have guardianship of their great-niece, Dai’Dreahna (7) and great-nephew, Dai’Shaun (15). Tasha says, “we also have 2 dogs, a cat and a fish - sometimes life can get pretty hectic, but I wouldn’t change it for anything!”.
