GLENDALE – CSI Professionals Inc., a Glendale-based Filipino company, renewed its commitment to provide quality service to Filipino and other immigrant communities as it celebrated its 30th anniversary during a press conference on Wednesday, Dec. 30 at its offices.
During the press conference, Marge Ordiales, CSI president, reflected on the company’s decades of service, the upcoming Manila expansion, and the launch of the CSI-MHO Global Foundation as an extension of its mission to serve the Filipino community.
Ordiales and two other members of the CSI leadership team – Rene Sales Martinez, CSI director for strategic partnership, and Katherine Biunyi Gavia, office manager — shared insights into CSI’s rich history, emphasizing the “enduring heart and purpose that have been pivotal to our success.”The CSI team spoke passionately about the personal commitment each member of the CSI staff brings to the table, “fostering a culture where every client is not just a case but an individual with dreams and aspirations.”
“This commitment was not merely a part of our journey but a guiding principle embedded in the fabric of CSI, driving us to go above and beyond in ensuring the success and well-being of those we serve,” Ordiales said.
During the press conference, Ordiales announced plans to establish offices in Manila as she showcased CSI’s strategic vision for global expansion, reinforcing the company’s commitment to providing top-notch services to a broader audience.
