Ryan started off his career in his pre-teens performing landscaping services around his local neighborhood of Wekiva, advancing later into the tile/flooring/stone installation trades at 18 years old. Ryan trained as an apprentice for 6 months before opening his own flooring/tile installation company while attending the Florida State University. After graduating with his civil engineering degree and passing his Fundamentals of Engineering exam, Ryan returned to central Florida and entered the industry of commercial construction/manufacturing of precast concrete structures. For close to 17 years Ryan advanced through multiple roles such as Plant Engineer, Quality and Safety Manager, Production Manager, and Plant Manager. During this time, he achieved several prestigious certifications from highly regarded organizations such as American Concrete Institute (ACI), Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), American Welding Society (AWS), and Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI). It was during this time in his commercial construction career that Ryan graduated from Louisiana State University in Shreveport with his Master’s in Business Administration. Shortly after graduating, Ryan put this degree to use by opening RVD General Contractors after attaining his certified general contractors license, which brought him to you today!
