RE: Professional & personal reference letter

 

To Whom It May Concern:

 

Rafael Giraldo is a name synonymous to hard work, integrity and professionalism. My 13-year relationship with Rafael is both personal and professional. On the professional front our relationship has had multiple facets including among others positions of employee, consultant and partner to subsidiary operations in Latin America. More recently, Sky Mart Sales Corporation has been a client to one of his former companies (Latin American Trade & Information Network, Inc.).

  • In 1991 as an Overseas Consultant to Sky Mart Sales Corporation, Rafael assisted our company in the negotiation for the purchase of two Uruguayan companies (Pike y Cia S.A. and Aero Imports Ltda) - Dealers of Beechcraft, Bell Helicopter, Piper Aircraft and Textron Lycoming

  •  

  • During 1991 to 1992, Rafael established and operated as General Manager of Aerosur Ltda. This company located in Bogota, Colombia was a subsidiary of Sky Mart Sales Corporation for the marketing, sales and distribution os aircraft parts.

  •  

  • From 1996 to 1999 Latin American Trade and Information Network, Inc. (lati.net) owed and operated by Rafael Giraldo, provided our company a variety of Internet services including dedicated LAN-Internet connectivity, web page design / construction and training of our employees in Internet and software application usage.

Since his final relocation to the United States in 1992, I have kept close contact with Rafael. I have followed his professional career seeing him excel in multiple fronts. From his Executive Director position at the Colombian American Chamber of Commerce (1994-1995) to his activities at latinet.com (1999-2000), I have seeing him a constant sense of focus and commitment to whatever task he has at hand. In summarizing his personal traits the concepts that come to mind are those of: Dependable, resourceful, knowledgeable, personable, fast learner and intelligent. 

 

Both my company and myself are delighted to provide the best reference of Rafael Giraldo. Should you have any questions or comments do not hesitate to contact me at your earliest convenience at (305) 592-0263 or via email at gregory@skymartsales.com

 

Sincerely yours,

Gregory Robbin
