I
am empathetic, energetic and optimistic. Double like a magnolia, an
entrepreneur and a mother, the choice to create MAGNOLIA MOVING SRL was an
excellent compromise between my two souls.
Born and raised in Apulia, I then moved to Rome to study Oriental languages.
After graduation, I became a mother and started working in real estate and the
hospitality industry before falling in love with the Moving Industry. I
worked as a European Traffic Manager in a large company where I learned the
ropes of the trade.
In 2012, I founded Magnolia Moving, a relocation company with the name of a
flower, a feminine touch in a historically male-dominated industry. My
secret to success is the passion.
Angels Gallardo worked as a journalist specializing in
culture and politics for about five years before joining her mother’s company, Inter S&R Spain, in 2004.
Now she is CEO and has played an active role in IAM serving on the IAM-YP
Management Board and the Alan F. Wohlstetter Scholarship Fund Board of
Directors.
Angels is currently transitioning to assuming the CEO title
(and responsibilities) from her mother, which pushes her to get involved with
aspects of the company with which she is less familiar. She recognizes her need
for formal training in some aspects of the business, but at the same time, she
needs to stay remain fully engaged in leading the company during the current
situation.
Angels intends to continue her education in the years to come
while she works into her expanded responsibilities, as well as staying involved
with industry associations such as IAM and Euromovers, where she is currently a
board member for a second term. The AFW Scholarship award will go a long way
toward helping her achieve all of her goals at the same time.

She left in 1978 to pursue a career in Accounting, then returned to work
again for the Company in 1989. Her years of experience working with the TQAP
Program, Non-Temp Storage, and the DPM/ Local Move Contract eventually led her
to being CFO of Lambert Transfer & Storage, then becoming President and
owner in 2010.
Since the implementation of DP3, she has successfully transitioned
and expanded the scope of business from being a Local Agent and Intrastate TSP,
to managing other California DOD Companies and adding Interstate Authority. Roughly 95% of the Company’s revenue source
is DOD, giving her a working knowledge of business from both the TSP and Agent
perspectives, making her an objective voice for industry.
Jeanette currently serves as the General Manager of Cannon
moving & Storage is passionate about “Interest Based Practices” and believes
decisions in the Program should be about the Service Member’s best
