Meet Cecilia Angotti, Accounting Associate (I)

Cecilia was born in Los Angeles and raised in San Diego. She is the oldest of four siblings, two sisters and two brothers. Shortly after graduating from Sweetwater High School, Cecilia gave birth to her first daughter, Priscilla.

In 1989, she began her career as an Office Manager/Executive Assistant for a metal finishing company. In this role, Cecilia learned the responsibilities and skills necessary for managing a large company. In 2004, the owner of the company decided to close down the business. After 20 years there, Cecilia was looking forward to an adventure – finding a new career. It was only a few months after leaving the metal finishing company that she began her career at Flores.

Cecilia is currently an Accounting Associate (I) and responsible for Grocery store Clients. She has been with Flores for 15 years and the family environment is her favorite aspect about the company. She states, “I have gained life-long friends, relationships with my clients and co-workers, and enjoyed watching the company’s rapid growth over the years. It’s amazing working for a company that awards its employees and promotes teamwork through fun events like bowling, baseball games, lunches, and charity events. I feel honored to be picked by Michelle for the spotlight of the month.”

When she’s not working, Cecilia enjoys spending time with her husband and three children, Priscilla (32), Junior (28) and Ariana (8). Cecilia states, “For me, being a mother is my greatest accomplishment.They are my motivation to improve myself, to smile when I want to cry, to play when I want to sleep. When a person compliments my child that is my accomplishment; they made me a better person.”

Trust was the number one lesson Cecilia taught her children. All bonds are built on trust and without trust there is nothing; your word is your bond.

Her life motto: “You are never too old to set a new goal or to dream a new dream.”
