Ms. Lilly began her career in international trade from the ground up as a receptionist at a freight forwarding firm, learning every nuance of cargo movement, ocean documentation, and customs compliance.

Driven by entrepreneurship and lifetime savings, she partnered with her son, Nelson R. Cabrera, to establish LILLY + Associates International (ShipLilly) in 1996.
