Freight transportation and logistics provider USA Truck Tuesday named Michael K. Borrows chief financial officer, effective the same day.

Borrows replaces Clifton R. Beckham, who previously announced his resignation as executive vice president and chief financial officer.

Before he was with C2FO, Borrows was senior managing partner and chief financial officer of FinEquity Partners LLC, which provided management consulting services to the transportation industry, among others.

A CPA, Borrows has an MBA from DePaul University Kellstadt School of Business in Chicago and a bachelor's degree in finance from Liberty University.
