Celebrating our colleagues who’ve stepped into new roles—congratulations! Please also join us in welcoming the following new members to the GracoRoberts family
Jimmy Dereta Welcomes Daniel Picazo, Document Control Specialist, Arlington, TX
We’re excited to welcome Daniel Picazo to the GracoRoberts team in Arlington, TX as our new Document Control Technician, reporting to Jimmy Dereta!
Daniel brings with him an impressive 21-year career at UPS, finishing as an Area Supervisor. His exceptional attention to detail made him stand out, and we knew he’d be a fantastic addition to the Quality Team.
Outside of work, Daniel’s heart is on the field—he’s been coaching girls’ softball for years and proudly helped 12 players earn scholarships. Sports run deep for him, though you won’t catch him rooting for the Cowboys... he’s a dedicated Packers fan 🧀. When he’s not cheering at a game, you’ll find him enjoying time with his family or hunting down the best Pho spots in town. If you’ve got a favorite bowl in Arlington, be sure to share it with him!
Let’s give Daniel a big GracoRoberts welcome!
Jess Gulley Welcomes John Staino, Warehouse Associate/Picker, SkyGeek, LaGrangeville, NY
We’re thrilled to welcome John Staino to the SkyGeek family as our new Warehouse Associate/Picker in LaGrangeville, reporting to Jess Gulley.
John brings nearly a decade of experience from Amscan, a third-party supplier to Party City, where he played a key role in organizing and staging warehouses for seasonal products. So next time you spot that perfect Halloween costume right where you expect it—John might’ve had something to do with it! 🎃
John shared that his onboarding experience has been smooth and enjoyable, and he’s already impressed by how friendly and helpful everyone is. He’s eager to dive into the day-to-day operations, and we couldn’t be happier to guide him through the ropes.
Here’s to many successful days ahead—welcome aboard, John!
Robert Hart Welcomes Matthew Villagomez, Account Specialist, Arlington, TX
We’re thrilled to welcome Matthew Villagomez to the GracoRoberts team! He’ll be reporting to Robert Hart in Arlington, Texas.
Matthew is a proud recent graduate of Baylor University in Waco, TX—Sic 'Em Bears! 🐻 While at Baylor, he made an impact as an intern in the Applied Sociology department, served as the Student Coordinator in the Multicultural Affairs Office, and held the role of Vice President in his fraternity, Nu Zeta.
A true connoisseur of cool, Matthew enjoys collecting sneakers and colognes. As for football—he’s loyal to both the San Francisco 49ers and the Chicago Bears (yes, we’re choosing not to judge 😄).
Please join us in giving Matthew a warm GracoRoberts welcome!
Leah Kaur Welcomes Emmie Newton Hobbs, Account Manager, Silmid, UK
I am delighted to welcome Emmie as the newest member of the Internal Sales team. Emmie has hit the ground running in her Silmid journey, already making a great impact by contributing to ticket closure and assisting with the timely shipment of customer orders.
Welcome to the team, Emmie! I am so excited to see you progress and thrive in your role.
Matt Hodoba Congratulates Vincent Cacciola on his Promotion to Jr IT Service Desk Analyst
Huge shoutout to Vincent Cacciola on his promotion to Junior Service Desk Analyst! He’ll now be reporting to Matt Hodoba over in LaGrangeville, NY. Vincent joined SkyGeek back in July 2022 and quickly became a core part of the receiving team. His drive and willingness to jump in has earned him some serious respect from both his teammates and leadership. We’re pumped to see how he grows in this new chapter.
Congrats, Vincent—and welcome to the GracoRoberts IT crew!
