NOVEMBER
November 2021 has been a great year for Finance, full of learning and growing experiences, most of us faced new challenges that led us to grow as individuals and as teams. As always, our department worked hard and smart, many of our teams had the chance to implement projects and improvements that made our job more effective and hopefully, a little bit easier, but also, we took the time to know each other a little bit more, by sharing in workshops, reading together, playing with our teammates and even singing! I´m thankful that I had the opportunity to know and work with such an energetic, creative & innovative group of people that welcomed me warmly from day one. I wish the very best to this amazing team, I hope you all continue chasing your dreams and goals. Have a successful 2022 😊

Guatemala is known for its amazing landscapes, is a country full of volcanoes and mountains that can easily be appreciated from almost every part of the country. November is a special month for us because of the weather. It's our windy season, so the sky is clear. Around 5:30PM, you can start seeing the sky turning pink, purple, orange, and yellow. All of a sudden the volcanoes create a perfect shadow, if you are lucky you'll appreciate Volcan de Fuego or Pacaya erupting. This will allow you to take amazing photos from anywhere you are and I mean anywhere!
You just need to look up!

SUMPANGO GIANT KITE FESTIVAL
TAKING OVER THE SKY WRITTEN BY ANNA
When we were kids, we used to create kites from scratch. But Guatemalans took it to another level. People spend months constructing enormous kites, some of which reach up to 65ft across and every kite represents something special. The tradition of flying kites (called barriletes) on November 1st is a unique aspect of the Guatemalan celebration. These kites need help from 3-10 persons to raise them up. Kites serve as a symbolic connection to the dead and help guide the returning spirits to their families.

Michael
D'errico Finance Vice President
Our finance mVP is a proud father of two beautiful kids. The big brother is 6 and a little girl of 4. He loves to fish and go frequently with his son. His family just moved to a new townhouse and they enjoy watching and practicing sports. In fact, when Michael is not working, he loves to coach his kids in several sports. And when I say several is for real. They play soccer, baseball, hockey, gymnastics, etc. You name it and they do it. They even got season tickets to the Boston Red Sox. Other than being a big sports family, they really enjoy traveling. Specially to Florida and also Cape Cod.
Born and raised in California, Charlotte recently moved coast to coast to NY (talk about weather changes) with her husband. They have been busy restoring a beautiful farmhouse and the surrounding acreage which is one of her passions. Quite a great hobby if you ask me (which you didn´t lol) Our RevOps Sr. Director and country music lover is great at asking questions but even better at getting answers putting her Sociology degree to great use.
CHARLOTTE CRANDALL Revenue Operations Sr. Director
PETER ROLLER
Customer Payment Support Director
Our CPS Director is a huge sports fan and though he has lived in California for 22 years now, his hometown is Anderson, Indiana. Showing pride on his Midwest roots, his favorite teams are: Ohio State Buckeyes, Indianapolis Colts & Indiana Pacers.
We all had favorite shows or cartoons as kids and Peter's was inspector Gadget. He was also into videogames and his favorite was Nintendo's ¨Tecmo Super Bowl¨. Even though it's his passion, Peter is not just all about sports. We could have also watched him on shark tank since he won a national ¨Entrepeneurship Business Plan¨ competition. No need to add he has a business degree, but interesting enough his favorite class was creative writing. So I guess he really sold his business plan snatching that win for the team.

A place to visit Laguna Chichoy
Hidden in the mountains, this place is the essence of Tecpán. This former Swiss-German farm has been converted into an eco-park with an extensive property and several pools for fishing. If you are a lover of cold weather and wooded landscapes, without a doubt this is your ideal destination. Located approximately an hour and a half from Guatemala City
Something to watch Black Mirror
It is a series of episodes independent of each other and, with a totally different cast and plots, whose only common point is the power of new technologies to move the world. The fiction distributed by Netflix makes an analysis of new technologies in an advanced and futuristic way that sometimes threatens the integrity of people. A path through the dangerous, obsessions, morals, loneliness and feelings involved in different worlds controlled by technology with an end, mostly catastrophic, although other times satisfactory.
