Bio
Barbara Crofts
While reporting to me as Assistant Controller at Main Electric Supply, I found that Fernando can be relied upon consistently. He always stepped up to accept critical and demanding project assignments, no matter how heavy his existing workload. He delivered on commitments on time and with accuracy. He could work either collaboratively or independently, whatever best suited a particular situation.
Jennifer Vinovich
Fernando was my manager for over two years at Main Electric. His dedication, resourcefulness and encouragement make him a natural leader as well as a great accountant. He was always willing to share his accounting knowledge and Excel skills which has encouraged me to advance in my own career. He is hard working and willing to tackle any project as he continually worked to improve our rapidly growing company by creating new procedures and analyses. I highly recommend him for any accounting opportunities in his future!
