Explanation
それに is a conjunctive adverb used to add more information or to emphasize an additional point. It behaves like “and furthermore” or “in addition” and is placed at the beginning of the second clause after a previous statement. It can soften a contrast by adding new information rather than directly opposing what came before. It’s common in everyday speech and informal writing, and it helps to chain multiple pieces of information smoothly.
彼は優秀だ。それに、努力家でもある。
かれはゆうしゅうだ。それに、どりょくかでもある。

He is excellent. What's more, he is also a hard worker.
