resulting in yearly recognition as a "Commercial Real Estate Heavy Hitter" by the Austin Business Journal.

This narrow focus has allowed him to become a true expert in this field.
David is recognized by both past clients and landlords as one of the most service focused brokers in the industry. He consistently strives to go “above and beyond” the normal duties of a broker which has resulted in a long list of repeat clients. David is an active member of Austin’s Commercial Leasing Brokers Association and represents local charities on a pro-bono basis.
David graduated from the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas with a degree in finance. He is happily married to his wife, Kelly, and the proud “daddy” of the two most spoiled dogs on the planet. In his free time David enjoys traveling, visiting wineries, exercise, and any activity which allow him to be overly competitive with his business partners. If we gave out trophies for all of the silly inner office games we play, David’s office would be filled with them.
