JJ at times represents the UN working throughout the world and recently was the only scientist allowed to drill into the Kings Chamber in the Great Pyramid in the past 25 years.

I have worked with George Hopkins, who was the construction manager for a renovation and addition to a large custom residence in Saratoga. He demonstrated excellent skills in analyzing the scope of work, implementation of a construction schedule and managing the cost for the owner. During the construction period he was required to coordinate the work of various subcontractors, involving scheduling, assisting with review and management of the owner's separate contracts, meet with different subcontractors and material suppliers to access their qualifications and services, and to perform the general administration of the construction., George has additionally demonstrated his abilities to work with the various building inspectors for obtaining approvals and is knowledgeable of the codes and regulations, as well as plan review processes of both local and state agencies. I recommend George Hopkins for the position of Construction Program Manager and believe that he will successfully perform the duties and tasks required of this position.
