RV PRO Celebrates 40 Under 40 Class of 2022

Each year, RV PRO spotlights 40 professionals across the RV industry who represent up-and-coming leadership under 40 years old. Honorees are chosen based on years in the industry, contributions to their workplace and involvement in their community.

RV PRO will honor this year’s 40 Under 40 class tonight, Tuesday, Nov. 8, at the RVDA Convention/Expo in Las Vegas, with 30 of the winners attending in-person.

Honorees come from all segments of the RV industry: dealers, OEMs, suppliers, associations and more.

“We had an amazing group of people nominated by their peers or managers this year, so it was difficult to narrow the list down to these 40 honorees,” said RV PRO Executive Editor Jennifer King. “We are excited to feature this group as our 40 Under 40 Class of 2022 in our December issue, and to celebrate with most of them next week at the RVDA Convention/Expo. They truly are the rising stars of the industry.”
