CHRISTOPHER THOMAS BERTINI
COO
Chris earned his Mechanical Engineering degree at Fairfield University and handles the day to day operations at UGC. Using a multi-disciplinary approach, Chris is the conflagrant engine behind the business. Through the use of unconventional metric tracking, such as Actions Per Minute (APM) and Tasks per Hour (TPH), Chris delivers immense value both to UGC and our Customers.
CT approaches each day like a game of speed chess. If you can click faster, type more accurately, and complete more actions in a set period of time, you will win. He fondly refers to this approach as a HEAD game (High Efficiency Analytical Decision making). If you have a question or need, Chris has you covered, times 5.
JULIANA BERTINI
CMO, Creative Director
Jules earned her Marketing and Art degree at Fairfield University with Chris and is the creative inventor for Universal Grip.
