I am confident that she will diligently foster a team environment and lead the Human Resources Team with enthusiasm and energy."

"A significant portion of my U-Haul career was overseeing benefit operations where I found myself helping team members with their personal needs, which was very rewarding," expressed DeWinter.  "There are times when we just need to listen and other times provide guidance or options when asked for advice. I have always tackled each day with a service-oriented philosophy. I am excited about stepping into the role of vice president, exploring ways we can build on the strong foundation in place today and applying this philosophy to more effectively serve U-Haul team members."
