Max, International Advisor
Max
has international heritage,
developed uniquely in
Cuba,
either as the result of Spanish sailors, or as is often believed by
native Cubans, as gifts from
Italian
traders to open the doors of wealthy houses to their goods.
Max
uses this international pedigree to advise EVPS about critical
issues. He is curious, observant, smart,
always cheerful.
