Moore County is celebrating one of their own for a statewide recognition. Aberdeen Carolina & Western Railway President Jennifer White was recognized as a 2023 Trailblazer by Business North Carolina magazine. White was included in the October Business North Carolina issue which highlights 23 impressive under-40 leaders who are making a dynamic impact on the state’s smaller cities. It’s the sixth year BNC has saluted Trailblazers.

After getting a strong understanding in the commercial and industrial sector, she moved back to Pinehurst to begin her railroad career beginning as Director of Marketing and Sales.
