“War taught me how to survive. Prison taught me how to live.”

I am Jamaine Ayala—U.S. Army Veteran, state inmate, and now CEO of BlackLevel Logistics. My story isn’t about medals or mistakes; it’s about the scars I carry and the bridges I’ve built across the chasms of trauma and judgment.

When I returned from my deployment to I didn’t just leave the battlefield—I brought it home. The hypervigilance, the nightmares, the numbness.

In prison, I trained fellow inmates to code, rebuilt with men society wrote off, and realized logistics wasn’t just about moving freight—it was about moving people forward. In 2022, I walked out with a business plan scribbled on commissary napkins and a vow: to create jobs for those like me—veterans drowning in silence and citizens branded by their past.

Today, BlackLevel Logistics isn’t just my company. It’s a brotherhood. A battalion of veterans and returning citizens who prove every day that discipline doesn’t expire with a discharge date, and redemption isn’t a destination—it’s a load we carry together.

This is the truth they won’t put on a corporate website: The road to hell isn’t paved with good intentions. It’s paved with indifference. My road to redemption? It’s paved with diesel, dignity, and the unshakable belief that every soul deserves a mission.
