Taylor Hudson
Taylor is a co-founder of Synergy Commodity. He is a veteran of the distillate industry, a passionate advocate for entrepreneurs, and a very proud graduate of Virginia Tech (Go Hokies!)
Taylor loves nothing better than spreading best practices about buying and hedging, and working with growing businesses to determine how they can get an edge. Taylor is our chief brain on supply strategy, a prominent industry speaker, and always thinking about adding value for our clients.
Aviral Chopra
Avi is a co-founder of Synergy Commodity. He is our expert in liquid fuels, trading, markets, and asset utilization.
Widely read and endlessly curious, Avi encourages our clients to think about doing things differently, with the goal of enhancing profitability. Avi knows every Synergy process and is the swiss-army knife of our organization. He supervises our day-to-day procurement and leads procurement project work. When not manning the desk, you might find Avi meditating… ask him!
Arthur Ravo
Art ran procurement and hedging at Paraco Gas Corp., a major propane retailer on the east coast, for over 32 years. He came on board with Synergy in 2022.
Art is skilled at all the ins and outs of reducing costs year-round, in a variety of market conditions. Art runs our day-to-day propane buying operations and leads procurement project work. He is laser-focused on making the right procurement decisions and setting up processes to support continued success. When new clients see what Art can do, the rave reviews start coming in.
Jordan Manchester
Jordan was Synergy’s first hire and has been a key contributor to our ability to grow. Jordan executes much of the day-to-day buying, interacts with our clients and carriers, and manages the associated confirmations and data in our applications.
He is always willing to consider a new process and is a strong advocate for continuous improvement. Jordan also keeps us young… When he is not manning the desk you will likely find him on skis or a paddle board, depending on the season.
