Alex is based in Westwood’s Dallas, Texas, office. He shows commitment to Westwood’s core values by fostering a strong “one-team” mentality. Alex says, “I’m always trying to make sure that I’m looking out for my team’s best career interests, whether it's by training, making sure they feel acknowledged for their work, or just by doing a team lunch after getting three project submittals done in one week.”
Communication is important to Alex and his team, and he attributes some of their success as a group to their dedication to open and frequent communications with their clients. “Our client’s satisfaction is dependent on trust. Keeping honest and open communication in our interactions with the client every day is important to growing trust and respect,” says Alex.
