About Dave

Thank you very much for viewing my profile! The first thing you should know about me is that I love living in Austin, TX! I wasn't born in Austin, but I got here as soon as possible. I grew up in the panhandle of Texas - Amarillo to be exact. In 1999 I moved to San Marcos to attend Texas State University. Upon graduating in 2001, Austin became my permanent home. After college I worked in the restaurant business for several years. From there I obtained my security clearance and worked for Homeland Security. I helped folks in desperate need after catastrophic natural disasters, and I also performed fraud investigations committed under FEMA. For the next seven years I was a manager helping students obtain college loans for their education or help assist setting up payments back to the Department of Education. All of these previous career choices have helped lead me to where I belong – being a realtor!! And I’m a realtor who loves his job! My desire to help people and my interest in real estate make the job such an easy fit. What else would I be doing if I wasn’t involved in such a rewarding experience? I'm so lucky and blessed to help folks achieve their goals and dreams of buying a home! A little about me - I have a lot of hobbies. My favorite is traveling with my family and friends. Before having kids, I hiked the Inca Trail for four days to Machu Picchu, Peru and summited Blanca Peak at the height of 14,345 feet, which is Colorado's 4th highest peak. I've been fortunate to travel to Mexico, Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela, France, England, Spain, Hungary, the Czech Republic, Italy, Morocco, Austria, and of course all over our beautiful USA. These days, I really enjoy playing some competitive beach volleyball at Aussie's Grill or Moontower. However, my most rewarding experience is being a father to my two kids and being married to my lovely (and smart) wife. My daughter is intensely involved with school and sand and club volleyball, and my son is just old enough to start calling me “Daddy.” Why did I want to become a realtor?? Because I'm passionate about helping clients, friends, and/or family achieve their goals. I have always been interested in real estate – and buying or selling real estate is the most important financial decision you will make. Let’s work together to make this decision a reality!
