Over the years, John played an integral role in developing many long-term client relationships that helped Rincon diversify its clients and services, including public agencies, utility, renewable energy and transportation infrastructure clients, and strategically partnering with other environmental, engineering and design firms. He pursued his interest in driving the business and played a significant role in business planning efforts over the last decade, which led to him to becoming COO in 2014. John has pushed to evolve Rincon\u2019s foundation by building a strong and nimble platform to allow our professionals to perform at a high level to lead the environmental consulting industry. His vision that Rincon is never quite \u201cthere\u201d and that there is always opportunity to improve helps Rincon provide client services that consistently exceed expectation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">John along with other leaders have been instrumental in pushing the firm to be a leader in the environmental consulting industry.
