Ricardo Brown
Financial Analyst/Accountant
Financial Analyst/Accountant
Ricardo has reason to have his head in the clouds, he is a recent parent and citizen of the United States, having moved from Spanish Town, Jamaica. He finds humor in watching Family Guy through quips like "You know what grinds my gears...?" Since leaving Jamaica, Ricardo has truly developed his epicurean tastes; growing away from Ackee & Salt Fish and spending his hard earned cash at the Hong Kong Buffet. When asked what he would do if he won the lottery, Ricardo simply said: "I would take a day off and soak it in." As our accountant, we're confident that if he does win, he'll spend it wisely while enjoying his time at Jamaica's Hedonism II Resort.
