About PAS Global

Dear Friends, Business and Professional Associates,  
I hope this letter finds you in good health and with ambitious spirits. The history of our native El Salvador is marked by numerous revolutions and subsequent triumphs that led to the earning of our independence from Spain in 1821. History has documented that Salvadorans are recognized as hard working, resilient and brave individuals. To this day we carry that tradition and we have our predecessors to thank for that. Through their efforts and examples, applicable qualities such as courage, civic pride, strength, and a solid work ethic were exhibited to be inherited by future generations.  
In addition to our common ancestry, we share the determination and unfailing passion to succeed in our respective businesses and interests. As Professionals, we direct our time, energy, patience and intellect to reach our prescribed goals. Which ever role you compete in, success is a common thread that connects us all. Our plan of action is to prosper.  
With that being said, allow me to take the time to introduce to you as well as share with you some information about outstanding and successful Salvadorans that operate and our a welcomed benefit our community.  
I will begin by introducing Marta. I had the pleasure of meeting Marta at a CAFTA briefing at the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce. Marta is an accomplished individual with impressive credentials that include a Bachelor’s degree from Loyola Mary Mount University (Magna Cum Laude) and a Juris Doctor degree with honors from USC Law School. Marta is currently a partner at the prominent Law Firm of Jeffer, Mangels, Butler and Marmaro, LLP (JMBM).  
Santiago Siliezar is an exemplification of an entrepreneur. He allowed his instincts and his risk taking spirit to go against persistent advice to locate his business in the Pico-Union district rather than an area in the west side of Los Angeles. He could have chosen to offer his services in an area that was familiar to him, but instead he invested in a high rent location and opened the doors to his business to clientele that would yield higher profits. His decision paid enormous dividends. He now operates a successful business in Brentwood, CA and services elite decision makers in the entertainment business and high powered executives.  
Another note-worthy person I’d like to introduce to you is Renato Cartagena who came this country with a dream and a vision. Today, he is the Principal Engineer at Disneyland and co-founder of the theme park engineering program at Cal State Long Beach, the only such program in the nation. He is also the CEO of Espino Beach Resort that will be built in Bahia de Jiquilisco in El Salvador.  
The afore-mentioned individuals are a minuscule sample of successful Salvadoran-Americans. Accomplished Salvadoran-Americans reside through out the world. We are an accomplished group of people that hold prestigious positions such as Engineers, Doctors, Scientists, Attorneys, and influential Politicians in this great nation. We our owners of our own struggles, historic events and accomplishments. We are a nation within ourselves.  
The primary objective of this letter is to introduce you to the idea of establishing a global network of Salvadorans that will be recognized as the Professional Association de Salvadoreňos. 
This organization will serve a multitude of purposes. Its central intention is to advance the status and improve and sustain the overall quality of life for Salvadorans around the globe. We will search for innovative ideas and create a plan of action to achieve our goals. The areas of focus will include, but will not be limited to, education, employment, business, politics, and socio-economic conditions . 
I am inviting successful individuals such yourself to construct such an organization. It will take a group of motivated, determined, educated, and accomplished Salvadorans to formulate a blueprint and architect the foundation of this organization. I welcome your input and thoughts in engineering an organization whose sole purpose will be to improve the quality of life for Salvadorans Americans.  

Saludos,

Our Story

Carolina Orlovsky-Telona and Felipe Telona have been devoting their lives together in developing the ability to touch, move, and inspire both audiences and students of all ages thru the art of dance.

Carolina knew from a young age when she began studying ballet under the direction of Ms. Bella Kovarskya that she would grow up to be a dancer. At Eighteen Carolina boarded a bus bound for New York City. She went on to study at the Alvin Aliey American Dance Center, become a recipient of the Richard Ellner Scholarship and apprentice for two consecutive years in Ann Reinking's Broadway Theatre Project.

However, it was not until she met Felipe in the basement of a Dance Studio in New Jersey did she realize her true calling, the World of Dancesport. Shortly after their introduction two things began to blossom, both her love for him and her love of Competitive Dancesport.

A year later, Carolina and Felipe formed a partnership in both marriage and dance. They have since gone on to become 3-time United States Bronze Medallists, World Mambo, World Salsa Champions, and most recently United States Silver Medallists in the Professional American Rhythm division.
A 3rd Degree Black Belt, Felipe was offered both a football and baseball scholarship but his heart was set on dancing when he decided to turn professional after only three years of dancing as an Amateur, during which time he won the 1999 Blackpool Latin Formation team title.

He began his professional Career in New Jersey where after only three months with his first partner he placed Fifth in the U.S. American Rhythm division. A day after returning from the U.S. Championships he asked Carolina out on a date. And so began their courtship and shortly after their partnership, which is now going in its sixth year.
