MGBW E-News 9.02.25: New Fish in the Sea + Promotions, Promotions, Promotions!
Meet The Marketing Manager, Aaron Huber!
With Leah Yam now at the helm of our Global Services division, we’re proud to announce the addition of Aaron Huber as our new Marketing Manager in the Chula Vista Office. With over 22 years of marketing experience within the defense, engineering, finance, machinery, and manufacturing industries, we’re eager to learn more about the fresh perspective he’ll bring to our marketing strategy. Before this role at MGBW, Aaron worked heavily in lead generation, tradeshow management, and email marketing campaign management for high net-worth organizations. Additional relevant experience in proposal creation and internal and external communications will be key in improving our marketing efforts across MGBW and affiliated sister companies during our intense growth phase.
Outside of the professional realm, Aaron enjoys frequenting Cozumel to explore the picturesque scuba diving locations with crystal clear waters and abundant marine life (over 500+ marine species). He often draws inspiration from these trips when working on marine life paintings in his free time, such as his recently completed acrylic and resin piece below!
Make sure to give Aaron a warm welcome when you see him around the office and direct any marketing/communications request to him via the below contact info!

Promotion of Dylan Machado to Dockmaster of Fifth Avenue Landing! |
We’re honored to announce the promotion of Dylan Machado to Dockmaster of downtown yacht marina, managed by Global Services. Fifth Avenue Landing (FAL). Dylan started with FAL only two years ago as the Marine Group Global Services Admin and Marina Assistant under former Dockmaster, Dawn Stofberg. As Dawn stepped into her new role as Director of Superyacht Services for Global, it was necessary to fill the Dockmaster role with an individual that would uphold the stellar reputation of the marina.
Over the past two years as Marina Assistant, Dylan learned, “Communication is key for processes to run smoothly. This means communicating with captains, crew, subcontractors, owners, and MGBW simultaneously.” He prides himself on his attention to detail and understanding of what clients need. When asked what he’s looking forward to most in his next position, Dylan mentioned, “I’m interested in making connections with new vessels visiting San Diego and ensuring they have the best experience possible.” He’s also excited about promoting crew events and expanding upon his knowledge of the maritime industry.
Please find Dylan’s contact info. below for anything Fifth Avenue related!

Promotion of Xiomara Silva to MGBW Purchasing Agent! |
Many of you may recognize the familiar face of Xiomara from the toolroom, but you’ll be seeing a lot more of her around the office as she transitions to Purchasing Agent under Manager Fernando Lopez.
When Xiomara joined MGBW in 2023, she had no previous knowledge of the marine industry but had the willingness to learn. She was self-taught in the toolroom realm and has eventually become the subject matter expert at MGBW. As you may know, the toolroom and Purchasing departments work closely together to ensure all vessels and workers are equipped with the necessities to complete a job. When asked about Xiomara’s promotion, Fernando shared, “We chose her because of the commitment and leadership she has shown working as the toolroom clerk the past two years. Her work perfectly matches that of the Purchasing team.”
In Xiomara’s own words, “If you give me a task, I will make sure the task gets done right using common sense and work knowledge. There is nothing I can’t do.”
Congratulations on your new promotion, Xiomara!

Promotion of Eddie Ceniceros to MGBW Tool Room Agent!
With the promotion of Xiomara comes a need for new leadership in the toolroom! Eddie Ceniceros has primarily worked for our Loss Prevention department under Michael Cockerham for the past 5 years, controlling access to buildings, responding to incidents, and assessing/mitigating potential risks. He also worked as a Facilities department associate for a year, demonstrating his wide range of skills and willingness to learn.
When he noticed the open opportunity within the toolroom posted online, Eddie jumped at the opportunity. This is the perfect example of MGBW hiring from within and promoting those that have demonstrated willingness to go above and beyond their assigned duties. Please stop by the toolroom and wish Eddie congratulations on this new role! |
