Adam Abbate

President

"I began my journey with CTS back in 2007. Over the years, I've worked my way up and eventually became the President of CTS 12 years later. Outside of work, I cherish spending time with my wife and three kids, and life is always full of excitement. My love for music has recently evolved into learning how to DJ as a new hobby which is challenging and gratifying at the same time."
