Founder
Jaclyn (Smith) Van Dril
Jaclyn brings over 10 years of experience in professional services, supply chain and operations, marketing, and strategy. She founded June Road to buy and operate one small business, taking inspiration from her father, who fulfilled his lifelong entrepreneurial goal in 2020 and now runs a profitable cabinet wholesale company, and her husband Eric, also an entrepreneur who runs a growing online business. Prior to founding June Road, Jaclyn was a management consultant working with Fortune 500 companies in the high tech, pharmaceutical, and consumer packaged goods industries to optimize their supply chains.
Jaclyn received her MBA from the University of Michigan and her B.S. from Washington & Lee University in Virginia. She was a collegiate swimmer and believes the sport instilled in her the discipline to overcome entrepreneurial challenges. Jaclyn currently resides in Chicago with Eric, but they are excited to potentially explore a different area of the country when Jaclyn finds a business.
