Harold “Brent” Franks

Construction Engineering Inspector
My name is Harold “Brent” Franks, I go by Brent. I have 7 years of experience in construction, 2 years of experience in construction materials testing and 11 years experience with USPS delivering mail. During my time with GLF, I served as a mechanic and heavy equipment operator. Working with GLF on various construction projects including but not limited to, Asheville regional airports, US 64 expansion in Lake Toxaway, NC gave me a fair amount of experience and has helped me tremendously with my new career as a construction inspector with BLE Engineering. I am a hard worker, loyal and dependable. I have an outgoing personality and do well in a team based environment, work well with others and maintain a positive attitude throughout the work day. I believe strongly in my convictions and always put my best foot forward.
