About Us

A Foundation for Excellence.

Our Story
Delivering resilience and sustainability through experience.
The foundation for TSOR Group was laid in 2010 by Ryan Molinaro, Garrett Laudenback, and James Cheng. James, a West Point and Ranger School graduate, applied his Army engineering experience to international construction and infrastructure projects. He met Ryan, an East Coast native and Division 1 athlete, at a CrossFit gym in Long Beach, California. Ryan had applied his experience as an athlete to build a world-class team at a large container terminal in the Port of Los Angeles and eventually hired Garrett to help drive innovation for large clients like Target and Toyota. Together, they integrated technology, process, infrastructure, and people to overcome supply chain challenges.

Through their work with some of the largest and well known brands in the world, the founders of TSOR Group recognized that people were the key to overcoming organizational challenges. Their human-centric perspective, combined with real-world experience, distinguishes TSOR Group’s client engagements.
At TSOR Group, people come first. Our human-centric approach has helped us build a strong culture that values innovation, collaboration, and exceptional client results. With a focus on decentralization, sustainability, and resilience, TSOR Group helps organizations overcome the complex challenges of the changing modern business environment while creating a better world for all.

TSOR Group’s story is one of determination, innovation, and a commitment to delivering resilience and sustainability through experience. From our founding principles to our human-centric approach, we remain dedicated to partnering with clients to create a better world. Our unique combination of real-world experience, tailored solutions, and a focus on people allows us to deliver exceptional results for our clients and make a positive impact on the world. As leaders in our field, TSOR Group helps organizations navigate the challenges of the modern business world to create a more sustainable, resilient, and human-centric tomorrow.

With every project and initiative, we aim to set the bar higher and push the boundaries of what is possible, delivering outcomes that reflect the highest standards of excellence and integrity.

At TSOR, we believe that generosity is a fundamental aspect of building a sustainable and resilient future. We are committed to cultivating a culture of generosity in all aspects of our work, from our client engagements to our community involvement.

We see generosity as a mindset that involves giving freely of our time, resources, and expertise to create positive impact for others. Through our work, we aim to enable radical generosity, empowering our clients and partners to make a difference in their communities and the world.

At TSOR, we strive to be generous not just with our actions, but with our ideas, insights, and expertise. We believe that by sharing our knowledge and collaborating with others, we can create a ripple effect of positive impact that extends far beyond our own organization.
