40 Under Forty: Alexis G. Vallejos
Erika Sidor
At The Edge At Union Station in Worcester are 40 Under Forty winners Jim Notaro, David Viens, Edward Murphy and Alexis G. Vallejos.
Vallejos came to the U.S. 13 years ago after graduating from medical school to pursue the American dream, despite English being his second language. He landed in the contract manufacturing field at Columbia, starting as coordinator and, after four promotions, into his VP role, working with customers to seize market opportunities by utilizing the company's scaled product launch process, which Vallejos helped develop.
When Vallejos and wife Osiris and sons Alexis, Jr. and Gabriel travel to Nicaragua, they schedule a donation to a poor area, knowing how far a small donation has on the community.
What person do you look up to? Chris Coghlin, CEO of Columbia Tech. He is very positive, energetic, has a great passion for success and always takes the time to mentor and thank his team.
If you spoke a college graduation, what would the message be? It's ok if they don't land their dream job from the beginning, as multiple paths can make you a better, stronger, confident and more knowledgeable leader.
