The award was established in memory of Flavio Castillo, a partner in the financial services assurance practice in the Chicago office, who passed away unexpectedly in March 2016. He was instrumental in creating a vision for ¡HOLA! and worked diligently to advance the ENG's mission. Known for his passion for achieving excellence, Flavio worked to empower ¡HOLA! members with skills, relationships and resources they need to grow their careers at RSM.
In Flavio's honor, the ¡HOLA! ENG awards $5,000 to someone who is pursuing excellence in their personal and professional life each year. The recipient is also asked to choose a charitable organization, aligned with the RSM US Foundation’s mission, to receive a $2,500 donation.
