Frank Gayaldo

Gayaldo International
“Sergey Ivannikov and your entire team are sure masters of networking. Honestly, I am personally quite sick of the word "networking" because it used so often. But your style is different. You have the Midas touch. Your connections are always right on target because you spend the time to truly understand who everyone in your circle truly is. That takes a lot of work, but you make it appear easy. Your style is sincere and totally unselfish. Thanks for allowing an Italian-Croatian-Spaniard-American grape grower from Lodi to participate in your wonderful events. I encourage all my friends, regardless of their ethnicity, to discover the magic that you create.”

How beautiful Sergey! After reading to a first grade class at Navigator today, I spoke to a little boy who not only had limited English but also had a speech difficulty. He was an eager kid who had so many thoughts and reactions to talk about, but just was not able to make himself understood. When I introduced myself to him later using my few Russian phrases, he was absolutely delighted. I owe all of that to you and your compatriots from the many Russian speaking countries. If you had not all come here to live, I – we - would never been enriched like that. Thank you for being part of our Community!
