By Builders For Builders

I am Owner and President of Gossett & Co, an employee-owned luxury home building company in Austin. We build spec and custom homes from $3 to $8 million.
I believe in combining innovation with time-tested principles, and am working to advance the industry in several key areas, especially with health and wellness in the homes we build.

I started building and remodeling homes on my own in 2009, and later formed a partnership to start Gossett Jones Homes, a company that focused primarily on building 'spec' homes and small multi-unit communities in urban Austin.

We achieved early success, earning a spot on the Inc 500 Fastest Growing Companies list in 2014 and winning Austin Business Journal's Builder of the Year in 2012 and again in 2022.

Prior to that, I worked in investment banking and real estate private equity, developing a strong base of knowledge around structuring deals and investments and raising capital for projects. I’m also a CFA charter holder.
