My Name is Ricardo C Williams. I am an immigrant from the island of Jamaica. I came to the USA in 2001. I was blessed to work and send myself to school where I studied Construction Management. I graduated in the top ten percentile from NYCCT with and Associated and then a Bachelor's Degree.
In 2004 I landed my first job in Construction as a Concrete Technician and a 3rd party field inspector. It was then I gathered in field information about details and the necessary micro components it took to develop and execute a construction project. In 2006, I moved on to being a plan clerk where I learned hoe to communicate with subcontractors to solicit bids ans well as build relationships. In addition, I leaned that organizing the construction documents and data entry was very essential to the project. These experiences were carried on when I got promoted to Assistant Construction Superintendent. After a number of years, I then moved on Construction Superintendent where I was able to sharpen my skills and build trust with my clients. Being hands on enabled me to attend to my clients demands almost immediately.
In my spare time, I enjoy sports. I play soccer when I can. However, for the past few months, i love to spend my free time with my son.
