Yamil Morales is the Co-Founder and CEO of MorPro Inc., a Los Angeles-based technology company building the operating system for modern trucking, and the founder of the American Owner-Operator Alliance.
Yamil grew up in a trucking family in Miami. In 2012 he started working as a dispatcher for his father’s trucking business, where he saw the industry’s thin margins and daily chaos up close, along with how much of it came down to outdated, disconnected tools. Dispatchers juggled spreadsheets, owners made big decisions on gut feel, and every company pieced together its own software.
In 2014 Yamil founded MJ Carriers, his first fleet. Soon after, he built his first TMS, which he sold to a major broker in 2018. In 2022 Yamil moved to California to focus on improving trucking with technology.
Today MorPro brings dispatch and operations, fleet maintenance, compliance monitoring, and a suite of AI agents for operations, finance, and compliance into one platform for owner-operators and small fleets. Its flagship fleet, Pathway Transportation, runs on the MorPro platform every day.
Yamil founded the American Owner-Operator Alliance (AOOA), an advocacy group for owner-operators.
Yamil’s goal is to give independent truckers and small carriers the same systems and technology that large fleets rely on.
