Having lived in Austin since 1970, I've watched the city and the surrounding areas expand in all directions. New industries moved into what was considered a small college/capitol town. As a former Systems Engineer with IBM, I worked with area schools, colleges and universities in educating the staff and administration in the use of technologies with students. During that time, I helped welcome many new families that made Austin the warm community it is today. These activities have given me a thorough and unique knowledge of Austin, and considerable experience with the details of real estate transactions.
