“Page brings a unique combination of executive leadership, a track record of building public-private partnerships, and a deep understanding of the transportation industry,” said Brenda Neville, Iowa Motor Truck Association President and CEO, and ATRI Search Committee Chair. “We are excited to welcome Page to ATRI and believe his experience, collaborative approach, and leadership will help the organization build on its strong foundation and continue delivering meaningful value to the trucking industry.”

“I’m incredibly excited and humbled by the opportunity to lead ATRI and build on the remarkable work Rebecca and her team have done over the years,” said Siplon. “I’ve always believed that trucking is the common denominator of our economy. Our nation simply cannot function without it. ATRI has earned a level of respect and trust throughout our industry that is truly special, and looking ahead, I see tremendous opportunity to build on that foundation, broaden our reach, and find new ways to put our research to work for the trucking industry and the economy that relies on it.”
