Jose brings a global perspective and people-first mindset to his work in public accounting. He spent the majority of his career at a Big 4 firm, working across multiple offices including Houston, London, and Copenhagen, where he gained exposure to a wide range of clients and industries. While he enjoys the technical side of accounting, Jose is especially drawn to understanding how businesses operate and contributing to their long-term growth. His ability to connect with clients, communicate clearly, and improve processes makes him a valuable part of any team. Jose joined DSWD because of the opportunity to play a meaningful role in the firm’s future and be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking environment. Outside of work, his competitive spirit shows up in board games, and he enjoys staying connected to Spanish and Latin entertainment.

“People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” – Maya Angelou

Jose is multilingual – he speaks Spanish, is actively advancing his French, and even picked up some Danish during his time abroad (though he admits it’s a bit rusty these days!).
