Richard is Project Director with Syncra Construction in Burnaby, BC. He has sat on the BCCA Board of Directors for the past 2 years and is also an active member on these Boards and Committees: BCIT Architectural Science Program Advisory Committee, VRCA Board of Directors, VRCA Education Committee, and Vice Chair on the General Contractors Committee.

Richard hopes to continue his contributions to the BCCA Board by advocating to maintain and improve the construction industry. He believes the Construction Associations are instrumental in educating members and advocating to government as the common voice for the construction industry.

With more than 30 years of experience in the industry, Richard’s advice for anyone coming into the trades is to “Network. Attend as many industry events as possible, speak to people and listen.”
