Richard Reed

Superintendent

Background & Role

 

Richard is an experienced Project Superintendent with a demonstrated history of using his skillset – project estimation, critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, and project planning – to successfully deliver projects. Richard is a strong operations professional with an Associate’s Degree focused in Construction Technology from Williamson College of the Trades.

To Richard, this is not an office job! He doesn’t work in a cubical, which means 9-5 isn’t in the cards – it would be rare if he wasn’t up at 4am, and onsite by 6am.  Richard prides himself as always being the first to show up and the last one to leave his jobsites.

Richard enjoys working with architects, engineers, designers, and subcontractors to optimize the final product and exceeding his clients’ high quality of expectations.
