Welcome to Tali Aflague

Background:

Tali believes in “being on the client’s agenda” and understands that listening is the first step in that process.

“Learning about the organization and what their goals are is vital – each company is unique and we’re grateful to have such a varied client base here at Durham & Bates. I get to work with manufacturers, social service organizations, and shipyards, just to name a few of the industries we serve. At the same time, there are certain challenges that all companies face. By taking a proactive approach we can improve workplace safety outcomes, engage employees and take your safety culture to the next level.”

Around the office, colleagues appreciate Tali’s optimism, willingness to help, and the fact that she’s a calm, insightful source of support.

Tali also happens to be the firm’s resident sommelier, and is certified through the Court of Master Sommeliers. If you spot her at an event that includes wine, be sure to ask her about all things wine and food, share your recipes with her, and let her know what your favorite Oregon wines are.

Education:

• Certified Risk Manager designation (in process)
• Certified Sommelier, Court of Master Sommeliers
