Kyle Franco

I had the pleasure of working with Rynoux on a few projects, and on each one he impressed with the problem solving skills and general attitude towards the work and the level of quality expected. He is a great project manager and has the ability turn any situation around with a positive result. I would gladly recommend him for any position in the constructions sector and combined with his previous work history, his administration skills only add to his appeal.
