Whether as a colleague, manager, mentor, or friend, Roberto is the type of person who elevates the output of everyone around him. He is strategic and intentional - he thinks two steps ahead when making decisions. He is collaborative and looks to creatively utilize individual’s talents in the most effective way possible. RB’s leadership style is based on the principles of openness, accountability, and integrity. He consistently pushes his team to make the best business decisions, not simply the decisions that are easiest or most popular. On a personal note, I am grateful to RB for providing mentorship while navigating career choices over the past 4 years. He’s helped me grow both professionally and personally, making me a better businesswoman in all ways. Roberto’s Socratic method when guiding my decision making process over the years allowed me to strengthen my critical thinking and business analysis skills. Roberto challenges his employees to consider alternate methods, to predict possible outcomes, and to proceed according to their best judgement. Roberto empowers his team to work autonomously and to navigate workplace challenges to the best of their ability, providing a guiding hand without micromanaging. Not only are the Jets better for having had Roberto at the helm of the Premium Partnerships department for 8 years, but so are all the employees who worked for and with him during that time.

I was fortunate to meet Roberto for the first time in the summer of 2017. We immediately connected and shared a very similar vision on leading a team, strategies for driving revenue, and an overall similar moral compass. After several months of staying in touch, I was lucky enough to receive an offer to come work for the Jets later that year. Stepping into a new organization always presents unique challenges, but having Roberto as a support made the transition significantly easier. He was always there to push me, challenge me, and provide a sounding board for new ideas. Our four years together went by in a blink, but his impact is still felt everyday. There is no doubt that he made me a better employee, manager, father, and husband. I firmly believe a leader within an organization can be truly evaluated when they have moved on, and I know our organization is better from Roberto's time and efforts.
