Rudy Barrio joined Allen & Caron in late spring 2005. He is an Account Manager and works with the Outreach group, in addition to managing accounts and providing logistical service for road trips, conferences and special events.

He most recently ran his own consultancy Barrior Services Consultant, working with major corporations and other entities to facilitate financial and marketing conferences, special events and exhibitions in New York, Nevada, and California. Among his clients were Time Warner (and America Online), Playtex Apparel Inc, and the Principality of Monaco, for whom he oversaw an annual exhibition of antique and one-of-a-kind cars in New York City.

Barrio assisted AOL in the roll-out of PBS Children's Music Program in New York City, AOL 8.0 software at New York's Lincoln Center, AOL's "Celebrity You've Got Mail" in Los Angeles, several trade shows including three years at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and a number of fundraisers for local charities.

He began his career as a police officer in New York rapidly advancing to the status of detective within four years of joining the department. Barrio served undercover for more than 13 years in task forces investigating organized crime, medical insurance fraud, enterprise crime and other areas. He spent his last two years in the department manning the detective's central crisis center. He received numerous accolades through out his years on the police force. Those honors included meritorious police awards, command recognitions and community citations. He is fully bilingual in English and Spanish.

A Bronx native, Barrio attended the New York Institute of Technology, where he studied engineering, but prior to graduation he transferred to the Police Academy, where he graduated in 1987. He is an avid golfer, deep-sea fisherman and SCUBA diver, and lives in Queens where he spends much of his time with his two daughters.
