Meet our host, Samantha Beach, and her guest, Luisa Fernandez-Willey, for coffee!

We're welcoming a brand-new voice to Meet Me For Coffee, and we're excited to bring her perspective to the conversation.

Luisa Fernandez-Willey is Principal Economist and the lead economic authority at Canadian National Railway (CN), where she leads macroeconomic analysis and economic strategy across North America. With more than 20 years of experience, Luisa specializes in connecting economic trends to developments across transportation networks, trade flows, supply chains, and freight markets.

And there is plenty to discuss.

During this live conversation, Samantha and Luisa will explore North American trade, the economic signals influencing freight markets, the impact of changing energy costs on transportation, and the current dynamics shaping the intermodal and truckload sectors.

Together, they'll examine the latest economic and market developments across the United States, Canada, and Mexico, and discuss how broader economic, global, and geopolitical trends are influencing transportation, trade, and supply chains throughout North America.

With her unique perspective at the intersection of economics and transportation, Luisa will share insights on the forces shaping today's freight environment and some of the trends attracting attention across the industry.

This will be Luisa's first appearance on Meet Me For Coffee, bringing a fresh perspective to the discussion.

And we want your questions. Bring them with you and join the conversation live. We'll cover as much ground as we can and leave plenty of room to explore what matters most to our audience.

How changing energy costs affect.

Grab your coffee and join us!
