# Tangram Ten // Cabello Costa
We're thrilled to welcome back a familiar face to the Tangram family! Cabello Costa has returned to join our team as an Account Executive for Flooring, bringing with him a wealth of international experience and an infectious enthusiasm that we've genuinely missed.
Cabello's journey with Tangram began in 2011, and after four successful years with us, he returned to his hometown of São Paulo, Brazil. There, he spent recent years as a Global Account Manager with Haworth's main dealer, expanding his expertise in the commercial furniture industry on a global scale.
What makes Cabello truly unique goes far beyond his professional accomplishments. He's someone who embraces life's adventures—from learning to ride motorcycles to spending three months volunteering in a primitive African village. These experiences have shaped his perspective and brought a worldly approach to client relationships that our flooring department has been eager to welcome back.
## Getting to Know Cabello
We sat down with Cabello to learn more about his return and what he's looking forward to:
**What draws you back to Tangram after your time in Brazil?** "Honestly, I missed the jokes and loud laughs from the people in the flooring department. There's something special about the culture here that you don't find everywhere."
**What's the most adventurous thing you've done recently?** "I finally learned how to ride a motorcycle—something I'd been wanting to cross off my bucket list for years."
**If you had to describe your favorite Brazilian food to someone who's never tried it, how would you do it?** "Imagine if a talented baker mixed the best cheese into soft, warm bread. That's 'pão de queijo'—cheese bread—and it's perfect with coffee. I'm determined to introduce everyone here to it!"
**Who would be your dream lunch companion?** "Albert Einstein. I'm fascinated by how he understood the fundamental laws of space and the universe without access to modern tools. That kind of innovative thinking inspires me."
## Looking Forward
Cabello's international experience, combined with his deep understanding of Tangram's culture and values, positions him perfectly to serve our flooring clients with both expertise and genuine enthusiasm. His global perspective on commercial design trends, particularly from the rapidly evolving Brazilian market, adds valuable insights to our team's collective knowledge.
As he settles back into his role, Cabello is focused on building strong relationships with clients and contributing to the collaborative spirit that makes our flooring department special. And yes, he's already planning to share some authentic Brazilian cheese bread with the team.
Welcome back, Cabello! We're excited to see what this next chapter brings.
