JOHN RADTKE (J.R.)

Home Preservation Where my primary focus is on new design projects and major remodels managing multiple design teams, I'm also involved with many of our 250+ subscribers that Home Preservation services. I visit homes during a the quarterly maintenance visits to walk the property looking for additional items that may need attention beyond the regular maintenance tasks being addressed. After my walk I would review my findings with the owner(s) and provide a report of my findings with photographs and recommendations.

I was recruited to manage multiple building and infrastructure design teams while coordinated weekly with the city building department for design to attain multiple permits for Phase 1 of the RELATED Santa Clara $1.1 billion dollar Mixed Use Development. The 13 acre site (3 city blocks) directly south of Levi's Stadium. The project included a high rise office building one story retail buildings, a high rise hotel with restaurants and an event center and a high rise pre-fix apartments, all built over 2 stories of connected underground parking. In my work efforts I maintained schedules to meet key milestones, presented regular status reports to the executive leadership, mentored junior team members and established effective communication channels with stakeholders to ensure transparency and alignment of expectations while working with our construction team in managing construction costs and schedules.

• With HOK I’ve had the opportunity to do more work in the region, primarily in sports projects, but also Corporate / Commercial / Tech / Justice / Transportation and others. My role was primarily team leader overseeing and heading in the design and production efforts, with an emphasis on production, quality control and construction.

• S.F. Office was initially a small two-person office working in conjunction with our Kansas City, Dallas, and Ames offices. With my Middle Eastern Experience I was able to help the firm pursue and win several projects in the region that not only covered us during the 2008 recession, but helped us to grow as a practice, in both the S.F. and K.C. Offices. In 2015 HOK acquired 360 Architects.

• The Kansas City office was primarily a sports practice, where I had the opportunity to be a part of large teams doing Professional, Collegiate and Government funded Sports Facilities both Nationally and Internationally. I lead design and production efforts and at a point managed staffing for an office of 160 +/- architects coordinating efforts within the Kansas City office as well as our other offices here and abroad. In 2002 I moved to Cairo Egypt with the firm to help Lead, Train and Grow our team there in pursuit of work and that region as well as Europe and Asia. In 2004 I moved back to the united states and worked from the San Francisco Office. In the San Francisco the majority of my work was in Sports and Medical.
