David’s experience in the construction industry began early in his life, while still in school, when he worked part-time in several industries, including masonry, welding and fabrication, framing, and commercial interior buildout. He then joined the military and served as an Army Ranger. This is where he learned leadership and management while achieving the rank of Sergeant.

After the military, David worked as a project manager for a national home builder and soon started his own home-building company. During this time, David oversaw the design, construction, and sale of hundreds of homes in and around the Houston market. Following Hurricane Ike, David expanded his experience into the insurance restoration side of the business in residential, commercial, and multi-family applications.

Since then, the relationships established in the multi-family, roofing, and industrial sides of the business have grown into the partnerships we have with our clients today. David is a member of TAA and HAA.
