What Clients Can Expect
Mario’s approach to client service is based on building deep personal relationships with clients and their stakeholders, and approaching their matters with an intentional and deliberate objective to serve and accomplish a client’s particular domestic or cross-border business goals in collaborative, thoughtful, timely, and efficient manner, without sacrificing attention to detail. For Mario the end goal with each client interaction is to bring enthusiasm and thoughtful energy to each interaction to enable him to become a trusted advisor and partner to each client.
Outside the Office
Inside and outside of the office, Mario strives to be friend and mentor to others, and is a husband and father to six children. He enjoys watching his daughters on the field hockey pitch and his sons on the baseball diamond, and attending his music-teacher wife’s musical choral performances.
