Principal at ROFA
Mr. Figueroa specializes in project management of public and private projects. He directs his major efforts toward overall management to assure that each phase of the project development is properly implemented. This entails coordination of the initial programming of clients’ needs and the project schedule, as well as continuous client contact to oversee that all requirements are met from the construction documents through project completion. Mr. Figueroa will remain personally involved from the date of the interview through contractual negotiations, programming, design, contract award, construction, and warranty period. Mr. Figueroa is a former student of retired partners Zeb Rike, AIA, and Dan Ogden, AIA, in the 1974 Pan American University Pre-Architecture Program. After graduating in 1977 from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor's Degree in Environmental Design and with 8 months of experience in architecture, he joined Rike Ogden Architects in 1978 and again in 1981 after completing the Texas A&M University Master's Program in Architecture. Elevated to Associate in 1983 and Principal in 1985, Mr. Figueroa has managed projects for most school districts in the Rio Grande Valley, including Zapata ISD and Freer ISD.
