He leads the analytics, appeals and grievances functions, and serves as an advisor to the senior leadership team on strategic initiatives. Tasimi's professional experience ranges from midsize to Fortune 50 com- panies. His rapid career advancement demonstrates a proven track record of delivering financial results. Tasimi holds a bachelor's degree in finance from the University of Connecticut, where he graduated with a 4.0 GPA and complet- ed his degree in three years. What's been your biggest professional accomplishment so far in your career? My biggest professional accomplish- ment is my promotion to vice president at ConnectiCare earlier this year. I was quickly able to learn my way through the organization and transform the analytics function from a report-pro- ducing function, to an insight-delivery function. For this, I was awarded a pro- motion, increasing my responsibility and visibility within the organization. How are you involved in the community? I currently serve on the finance board for the borough of Naugatuck, as well as an advisor to the Minister of Diaspora for the Republic of Albania. I have previously served as treasurer of the Naugatuck High School Marching Band Organiza- tion, and president of the Albanian- American Community of Waterbury. What do you like to do outside of work? When I am not spending my time in community or public service, I enjoy traveling with my wife (we have been to 16 countries so far) and spending time with my extended family. I am an avid soccer player, and one of Roger Federer's biggest fans. Four reasons why you deserve to be a 40 Under Forty: • Promoted to vice president at age 30. • Selected as one of three United States-based advisors to the Min- ister of Diaspora of the Republic of Albania, representing the Con- necticut Albanian community on an international level. • Dedicated community volunteer: Naugatuck Finance Board, Nau- gatuck High School Music pro- gram, Junior Achievement, and a Waterbury-based food-sharing program that feeds 100 families every month. • Completed my bachelor's degree in finance in three years while maintaining a 4.0 GPA. Completed finance coursework at age 19. FUN FACT Any time I have purchased tickets to see Roger Federer play a match, he has lost.
