On behalf of Secretary Chao, Ms. McInerney served as the daily liaison with the White House and White House Cabinet Affairs. She also served as the executive lead for stakeholder relations with elected officials, automotive OEMs, airline and airline service personnel, trucking and logistics companies and maritime audiences. 

In her role with Mullen, Marianne will focus on sales, marketing and growth opportunities with Mullen’s commercial and passenger vehicle programs, and overall strategic business opportunities for the company. She will also oversee all state and federal governmental affairs for the company. Mullen has recently announced a number of key milestones achieved by the company, including:

  • Delivery on first Class 3 EV Cab Chassis Trucks to Randy Marion Automotive Group on Sept. 28, 2023.
