MANAGEMENT TEAM

Carlos Trevino
President and Founder of CBIONE, started his career as a field salesman for the electrical wholesale industry in Southern California. During his time developing relationships with his customer base, he learned that there was a need for replacement circuit breakers for existing gear, current and obsolete. In 1980, he started CBIONE for the resale of new and reconditioned circuit breakers. This provided a solution for the immediate need for circuit breakers from various manufacturers. Carlos received his Bachelor's Degree from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) and extended education in Business Administration.
Ian Trevino
Director of Corporate Relations, National Sales and Project Management, he began his career with CBIONE 16 years ago. He performed field sales, customer development and corporate relations in the electrical wholesale industry during his first 12 years. During his time in the field, he learned that CBIONE had more capable services to offer other than the resale of new and reconditioned circuit breakers. The company had a shop service department that specialized in molded case circuit breakers for over 25 years. He spent the last 10 years working on the expansion of the shop services for low and medium voltage power circuit breakers. This addition to our product line and shop repair services has allowed CBIONE to provide more options and solutions to its customers. Ian Trevino served 4 years in the United States Navy. He spent his first 2 years working with the electro-mechanics at his command and later transferred to operations to perform the duties as an Information System Technician.
