Bio
Sebastian Victorica, CITP-FIBP
Jorge is a well organize person prioritizing and deciding since the very beginning which tasks to do and not to do but finishing them always which is the most important at the end. I can say that during the years I worked together with him he has shown always a positive attitude and on top of his continuous hard work I can say that he's a great person! His personal values took him to grow inside the company always with the intention to learn and cooperate with the rest of his team mates. I would not hesitate at all in hiring Jorge again if I would have the chance. No doubt at all that he is a great asses for any of the company that he works.
