Cobalt Boat Rental and day trading have given me the perfect balance of excitement and fulfillment. Cobalt has grown into one of the most sought-after boat rental services on Lake Austin, with a loyal and ever-expanding clientele. Meanwhile, day trading has honed my skills in high-stakes decision-making and market strategy, keeping me sharp and always ready for the next challenge. If you’re curious about how I got here, read on!Born and raised in Texas, I come from a family of top-producing Austin REALTORS® and hardworking farmers and ranchers. After college, I took over my father’s high-end residential and commercial construction company, and my career rapidly expanded as I worked with downtown Dallas developers, architects, and multi-family builders. For nearly a decade, I led the business to success while establishing myself in the competitive Dallas market.Eager for new opportunities, I transitioned into real estate in Austin, leveraging my construction and development expertise. Starting with multi-family properties in downtown Austin, I was mentored by three of the city’s top 25 agents, which gave me a solid foundation in the industry. Inspired by my godparents, who own the Austin Institute of Real Estate, I shifted my focus to high-end residential sales. Today, I specialize in some of Austin's most desirable neighborhoods, including Circle C, West Lake, Barton Creek, and Lakeway.In addition to real estate, I’ve built a successful career as a futures trader, navigating complex financial markets with sharp instincts and analytical skill. This venture has taught me how to manage risk, seize opportunities, and maintain a strategic mindset in high-pressure environments.But my proudest achievement has been growing Cobalt Boat Rental into a premier rental service on Lake Austin. By combining top-tier service with a luxury fleet, I’ve cultivated a massive, loyal clientele that returns year after year. Through innovative marketing and a commitment to delivering unforgettable experiences, Cobalt has become the go-to for Austin locals and visitors seeking a premium day on the water.Today, I live near Zilker Park, where I enjoy golf, traveling, live music, and spending time with my wife, Debbie.
