Edwin was a diligent ally and mentor to me while we worked together at Cenveo. We traveled together to asses acquisitions we were charged with bringing to the Cenveo business platform. Edwin was always an integral part of the team and consistently lead on conversions and was a tremendous resource when navigating new arenas within our business responsibilities. Edwin was never afraid to roll up his sleeves and support you in any way needed.

I have worked with Edwin on three separate occasions in each case Edwin has proven himself to be hard working, dynamic and a truly professional manager. He is respected by his supervisors, his peers and his subordinates and would be an asset to any organization.
