George is a great mentor and leader. He is very professional and passionate about his work. He is a great person to work with, and I am proud to also be his friend.

Shea Patrick, MBA

George did not fail me a single time. It was a pleasure to work together with George, who was an innovative strategist. George is an experienced expert. Deadline oriented, broad-minded, creative and excellent perfectionist. That's him - highly organized, achievement oriented, honest and intelligent project manager, understands complex matters even when outside of his direct area of expertise. Definitely worth recommending. It's an authentic pleasure working with him as he is a loyal team player.

Alla Zeldman Bush, MBA MSF MAE

Mr. Rizkalla is an outstanding mentor. It was a great opportunity to have worked under his supervision. He was always readily available and highly helpful. Thank you for sharing your knowledge of the industry.
