Trini’s education, accounting expertise and work ethics makes him a valuable asset. His commitment to delivering results is infectious and has a ripple effect that elevates the team’s performance. He has become a mentor to junior members of the team and it is very apparent that he cares for their development. I was very fortunate to have him in my team.
