I am Latasha Hansbrough, a seasoned professional with a diverse background in logistics and business management. My career commenced in the logistics department at RR Donnelley & Sons, a leading printing company in Chicago. Over the span of 18 years, I advanced from managing P&Ls and serving as an Operations Supervisor to becoming a Pricing Analyst. My career trajectory has been characterized by a dedication to driving strategic analysis and embracing emergent changes, culminating in notable achievements such as securing a single RFP worth $43 million. In October 2013, I partnered with James Lemons of Lemons Mechanical Inc. (LMI) to expand his business from a modest handyman service. As Vice President, I was instrumental in achieving an impressive 865% growth by 2015. My contributions included securing a full allotment for the CHA’s Section 3 Small Business Grant and successfully bidding on public contracts. Additionally, I facilitated key certifications for the business, including M/D/S/BE and Section 3 Certification. In 2016, I co-founded HansWal Services Inc. with my sister, Monique Walker. Our company is a certified W/M/D/BE Section 3 enterprise, underscoring our commitment to excellence and professionalism. As a lifelong learner, I consistently surpass industry standards and build strong professional relationships grounded in integrity, innovation, and reliability. My expertise in logistics and construction contracting, combined with my proactive networking and commitment to continuous improvement, has established me as a respected leader in these fields.
