Longino joins Aztec after serving as the special events manager for Taylor Rental Party Plus in Plattsburgh, NY. Over the course of his two years with Taylor, Longino oversaw all aspects of the party rental business including layout design, crew management, event planning, and storefront management. Prior to his position at Taylor he worked in catering operations for weddings, corporate events and fundraisers, which has resulted in valuable knowledge of the catering sector of the special events industry. His extensive experience in events and special event rentals will be a key contribution to the Aztec Tents Team.

"One of the most valuable experiences I have gained so far has come from time spent with Guillermo Lizalde, Tent Fabric Manager at our corporate headquarters," recounted Longino. "Seeing firsthand his knowledge of the products and the work that goes into custom projects really instilled an appreciation of the time and effort that goes into making the best and serving our customer’s needs."

Longino grew up in upstate New York and graduated from State University of New York at Cortland. He currently resides in the San Francisco Bay Area and recently became engaged to marry next summer. Longino is also an avid snowboarder and is looking forward to some weekend "pitstops" while on the road helping customers throughout the Northwest Region.
