Frank brings a special personal skill set to his work. Starting in construction as a young man, he quickly created his first contracting company. He then branched out into the real estate industry as a developer and agent.
In 1985, Frank moved to the government side of the Planning and Building permit counter to better learn the practices he had to deal with on a regular basis. Intending to work as a Supervising Building Inspector for only a couple of years, he found himself presented with unending opportunities, as a Manager of Community and Economic Development, to improve government Planning and Building services. Working with the likes of Jerry Brown, Frank was able to create and deliver incredible economic development programs.
With a focus on enhancing customer services, one of Frank’s major innovations was to put the first interactive mapping application on the Internet. His goal was to greatly improve public access to all types of government information, then hidden in protected territorial silos.
Ultimately, Frank’s innovations made a significant difference in how government operates today. While online mapping has become one of the most popular and frequently used applications on the Internet, it has also become the basis for many government, real estate, and development activities.
This invaluable talent, experience and knowledge of technology and government related requirements, gives Frank’s clients a special resource when dealing with compliance procedures and real estate related opportunities.
Frank’s work ethic is highlighted in the following recommendation from an individual who worked closely with Frank during his government service: “Frank’s approach to challenges that are presented is clearly based on simply resolving the problem. He is able to orchestrate suggestions from all sources without attempting to take personal ownership. He truly focuses on achieving the best possible outcome for all parties. This is a man with excellent work ethics and integrity.” Bob C.
