The National Defense Transportation Association is proud to announce Mr. Garrett McGregor, Senior Account Manager, Southwest Airlines, as the NDTA Young Leaders Committee Chair.

Garrett grew up just north of Dallas in Allen, Texas. He studied at Oklahoma State University, where he received his Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration (Sports Management), with a Minor in Marketing. Before joining Southwest Airlines, he worked for the Frisco RoughRiders, a Texas Rangers Minor League Affiliate, as well as the Dallas Mavericks. Garrett left the sports world to join the aviation industry approximately six years ago and has been with Southwest Airlines ever since.

In his current role as a Senior Account Manager, he has focused on the government passenger travel industry. He has attended the NDTA-USTRANSCOM Fall Meeting in St. Louis, Missouri, and the last three NDTA-DTMO GovTravels symposiums—and continues to learn something new about government travel at every conference. He is excited to take on this leadership role and engage with NDTA’s younger members!

Garrett, we at NDTA are excited to have you on the team and wish you every success as you support and lead our Young Leaders.  Please reach out to Garrett, particularly our young leaders, and let him know you are ready to go!

By VADM William A. Brown, USN (Ret.), President & CEO, NDTA
