David joined Austin Wealth Management in late 2021 as a financial planning associate. He has been interested in personal finance for years and holds the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation.
David's interest in investing began in his teenage years through conversations with his parents and grandfather, a retired petroleum engineer who set up Roth IRAs for his grandchildren.
David worked 14 years in his family's Central Texas newspaper, interviewing and writing about hundreds of people from a variety of backgrounds. His experience in a multi-generational family company helps him appreciate the goals and planning needs of families and business owners.
David and his wife, Allysse, live in the scenic Hill Country town of Lampasas. They have three active children: Eva, Simon and Luke. In his spare time, David enjoys running, weightlifting, reading and hunting.
