Our Leadership

Hazel Marshall

Hazel is the founder and visionary behind Hazel's Hot Shot.

After beginning her career with Audrey's Crafts, Hazel left Audrey’s and joined Perma Products where she was tasked with opening an Atlanta branch. Eventually, Hazel returned to Dallas, TX where she identified the need for an expedited freight carrier providing reliable and affordable deliveries on short notice. Hazel decided to strike out on her own. She bought a single Silverado pickup truck, secured her operational authority in Texas, and started thumbing through the phone book looking for possible customers.

Since the company's inception, Hazel has played an active role in setting the direction of the company. She has held every role in the company from Driver to Dispatcher to Office Manager to President. To this day, Hazel is involved in the management of the company, but after 35 years, she is finally starting to take some personal time to explore her interests in Horse Racing, reading, and playing with her great grandchildren.

Debbie Marshall

Debbie, Hazel’s daughter, began her career at IBM and eventually left IBM to join CSX Transportation as a Relationship Manager.  In 1992, Debbie joined Hazel’s Hot Shot.  Since joining Hazel’s, Debbie has been actively involved in management of the day-to-day operation of Hazel’s Hot Shot. 

Debbie has a Bachelors Degree in Business Administration from Southern Methodist University and a Bachelors Degree in Interior Design from the Art Institute of Dallas where she graduated at the top of her class.  In addition to her leadership role at Hazel’s, Debbie owns and operates several vacation rental properties in Destin, Florida and operates an interior design company called Destination Design.
