After taking her final walk in the Hugues Stadium, Keona earned her Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology in 2015 from the Chicago School of Psychology, Washington, DC campus. A mother of 2 boys, in 2017, Keona resigned from her therapy career to become a stay at home mom to find a cure for her youngest son, who had a digestive illness. In search of a cure, Keona became familiar with the world of holistic’s and was able to heal her son successfully. Shortly after discovering the power of holistic healing, Keona then used her findings and derived her company ‘Siah Seamoss’, a superfood beneficial for all individuals’ health and well-being.

After having great success with developing holistic products of her own, Keona joined a company in partnership with Amazon in March 2022 and realized that she had found her passion, and instead of returning to her career in psychology, the superfood business Owner became interested in the logistics industry.
Keona was an Operation Manager for a team of at least 50 Amazon drivers and a few dispatchers. Keona wore many hats as an Operations Manager, but her favorite role was being a life coach and a listening ear for staff. Keona then had the vision to create a logistics team of her own. Through the skills obtained from her psychology and counseling background, and her tenure as an Operations Manager, she found the secret recipe to creating a family-oriented, motivating, and positive culture within a company that would positively impact her staff’s lives both professionally and personally.
In August 2022, Keona decided to quit her job and take a leap of faith to begin her legacy, ACE Logistics. ACE Logistics was created based on experiences and how her staff continuously emphasized how they felt inspired and positively impacted while working on her under her management. Keona looks forward to connecting with her team daily, regardless of their backgrounds. She believes it’s about creating a safe space of opportunity for individuals to elevate, realize and know their worth, find their purpose, and feel appreciated and supported.
At ACE Logistics, the staff is not just employees. The staff is family. ACE Logistics provides the opportunity to help individuals elevate themselves by joining a united team that cares about their employees and offers the chance to develop tools and knowledge within the logistics industry.
