Brooklyn-born, Sales Guru
Founded Tropics Entertainment in the early 90’s

When I was 5, I was pretty sure I’d be a cowboy, with dark chaps and vest, silver spurs, strapped with a cool silver Colt sidearm, and a loyal chestnut horse.

Music Maestro and Band Mechanic
Keeps the trains running on time

The robots are coming for our jobs…probably a good time to be a musician! I’m a closet fan of daylight saving time and ice cream sandwiches.

Superintendent of Good Times
Football junkie and creative writer

On Sunday mornings, you can usually find me enjoying my NFL Sunday! I am currently in the process of publishing my first children’s book.

BEVERLY BAUMER

Accounting

Number Cruncher and Scheduling Wizard
Sassy animal lover

I tried the piano and guitar when I was a kid but they both ended in a bad breakup. My colleagues might describe me as a bit of a perfectionist, kindhearted but not soft spoken, and a major Taylor Swift fan.

NICOLE VELEZ

Event Coordinator

Organizer of Festivities
Witty, aspiring world traveler

I used to play the tuba from 4th to 9th grade. I was one of the only girl tuba players, so I loved that I stood out at every concert. My parents would always insist I play the flute, but I loved my tuba.
If I were a superhero, my superpower would be the ability to fly, so I can avoid Miami traffic.

KELLY-CHRISTINA SANTI

Event Coordinator

Supervisor of Happiness
Family-oriented dreamer and keychain collector

In another life, I’m pretty sure I was a Disney Princess. I’m BOTH a cat and a dog person. You can’t make me pick, it’s impossible. I have two rescue pets, Buster (my dog) and Finny (my cat) as well as a family dog, Buddy.
