## Story

After winning the $50,000 Mary Ellen Moving People Forward Scholarship, Jason Washburn was able to become the newest member of Livingston's business community with his TWO MEN AND A TRUCK* ® opening at 19 Microlab Road.

This grand opening doubles as a milestone for Washburn who started with the moving company as a driver five years ago, and climbed his way up the corporate ladder to finally owning his own location.

"I have told myself from the beginning of the program that no matter the outcome, the experience, the relationships I build, and the knowledge I will gain is extremely valuable," Washburn said.

The TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® opening also coincides with the company's Career Move Month, which is a month-long initiative dedicated to recruiting new candidates with a system wide goal of 1,200 new hires.

Sydney Creagh is a Senior Account Manager at No Limit Agency. She graduated from the the University of Iowa with a Journalism and Creative Writing major. Sydney has lived in Chicago for the last 5 years, but still loves walking the city and exploring new neighborhoods - especially during the summer months.
